    Re: BetterScanning holder owners: opinions?

    I've used one for the past year and while they are very very good you can save a lot of money by buying some anti glare glass and using coins or cardboard as the shims.

    Suppose it's more to do with producing a physical product, one of the reasons I've gone back to 5x4 film for my own projects.

    Re: Did the lab totally screw up this film?

    Looks like it could be the lab but just to be sure have you run a roll through each camera and send them to a different lab.
