They did a nice job at a fair price and turnaround was only a couple of weeks. Saturday I had a chance to try it out at a child's birthday party, using a IIIc. First time I've shot film in a couple of years so it felt a little strange, but I liked the pictures. Here's Emmett, the birthday boy: http://pswango.smugmug.com/Other/Shoebox/825205_r3tyF#1156952024_oAiRa-L-LB And here are a couple of his young lady friends. http://pswango.smugmug.com/Other/Shoebox/825205_r3tyF#1156951952_EBdGK-L-LB <http://pswango.smugmug.com/Other/Shoebox/825205_r3tyF#1156951952_EBdGK-L-LB> Both shots were f/3.5 at 1/40. Prints of both were gorgeous and reminded me why the Elmar is a favorite of mine. -- Phil Swango 307 Aliso Dr SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 505-262-4085
