Each film is good for certain things, but in general you can get a wider span of info out of a negative than a slide, that tends to get pretty contrasty. Basically: if it works, don't fix it :) Once you get the hang of your scanner, you can get some really nice results out of color negatives. Just check out Graham's shots the next one he passes a picture over to us.
