It seems that people in general are forgetting what good photos look like, as, for a few years now they've been getting 'digital' prints from school and sports event photographers. I come along with my old fashioned Leicas and good film like Reala and I keep hearing, "These are so much better than last year's photos". I can handle that. I guess what I'm doing still falls neatly within the bounds of what film is good for. Are any industry experts forecasting the sunset of professional standard D&P services? My preferred lab has already dumped Cibachrome in favour of scanning and printing at 250 lines per inch. Regards, Rick Dykstra. Australia.
