We cannot be too far away from the time when anything not entirely digital is 
alt.

 Cheers, Nick

Just dropped off 12 sheets today. 4x5 of flat art work coping. BWC in Dallas
charges 2.75 a sheet. My conversation with the front counter help suggest
that film processing is down about 85 to 95% so, there will be fewer and
fewer labs doing it.

I also got back my roll of Kodachrome 16MM movie film. It was old and
outdated and show substantial developing issues. Could certainly have been
caused by age but I have my doubts.  Now it's just a B&W camera. I was
hoping for a few useable frames to scan. 

I had a friend recently close his lab in the NYC area. It had been in
business for many years. Too much overhead and not enough throughput. Cost
of being a big lab but not quite big enough.

Was wondering if color film is considered an alternative photo process  
yet?hehe  I have some 4x5 sheets and the lab I used to use is no  
longer around.  Plus I'm having a difficult time finding one that will  
for less than an arm or a leg.
