Re: filmscanners: Grain in Color negative Film

I guess I'm spoiled by location then.  Here in New York there are many
labs that do excellent color negative developing.  (But not the one
hour cross the street from me:)  Alot of fashion is shot on neg these
days, and labs can't afford to screw up the big budget jobs.  If there
aren't any really good commercial labs in your area, sending off may
be the only alternative.  I would think labs that cater to wedding
photogs might do good work too.
