For color processing I suggest you find some really good professional C-41 lab, maybe one of those that still are processing manually and then get a Durst Printo processor and some not so expensive color enlarger. you could be using the same color head as a variable contrast head when printing black and white. Don't mess with processing C-41 by your own, no way. Not cheap, not comfortable... regards - -- Pablo Kolodny www.pablokolodny.com > From: Rei Shinozuka <shino@ubspw.com> > Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2001 10:31:02 -0500 (EST) > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: Re: [Leica] OT: quadtones rule! > > scanning in my stuff and looking at it at high magnification > is what pushed me to return to doing my own B&W processing. not only > the scratches and spots, but also the inconsistency. one time i'd be > amazed at how smooth D3200 could look, other times, horrified that > i could perceive grain in contact sheets! > > the same goes for color... i'm considering breaking out the old jobo > and returning to the fun world of color processing. > > as our eyes and our minds become more and more critical, > we're always rediscovering a new weakest link. > > -rei - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
