The wonderful young lady at the photo store knows what 4x5 is !!!
The background goes:
- I just bought an LF camera to learn with
- the local photo finisher that I do my medium format with doesn't print 4x5, but will process my negatives. I shot some colour neg's, and will eventual do my own BW
So I was worried that I'd have to go to custom printing for prints - a very expensive option. Or get a scanner (not thrilled with that option).
So I dropped into the local little photo shop and they said they would run the 4x5's through their high res scanner and photographically print the negatives.
And in talking to the lady, she learned 4x5 during college, does assistance work with film, while the main photographer shoots a Hasselblad with digital back. And the rest of the time, she's a diary farmer.
Life is good....
