Hi Don I ordered two Picture CD's lately at different stores. They are not the original Kodak ones in their format. The images are scanned at 1536x1024 Pixel and in JPG format :-( On the other side, they only cost about $6 here in Switzerland, the original Kodak Picture CD was more expensive...

Are you using Cyberview? And are you scanning negs or 'chrome? That scanner is not going to scan into the shadows on slide film, and is not going to give good color balance with neg film unless you post process with an editor. However, using post processing with neg film should give good

For $5.15/hr you expect knowledge AND experience? I have news for you, for that all you get is a warm body off the street. All that can be expected for that kind of pay is that they show up for work, and hopefully they do not foul mouth the customers. (Grinning because I know you realize this.)

Around here (Milwaukee area) you typically get develop, one set of prints and a CD for about $17 - the scans are 1200 x 1800. For hi res JPG it runs $5 for the CD setup plus $2/scaned neg - if you want TIFFs instead of JPGs it's $9/scanned neg. One pro lab has a special w/develop, one set of

The PF1800's major flaw is its inability to handle a wide contrast range. It works ok for negative film, but has real problems with slides. A quick fix is to take a tiny piece of white cellophane, such as from a white plastic grocery bag, and layer that between the glass and the back side of
