Some basic info........I have my 8x10 DeVere and had been processing my color and b&w film for a few years.....but only printing B&W........not much darkroom action in a long time....a "D" (you know!) and moving and having my enlarger in storage for a few years until recently.....OK...it's back up and ready to go...... I have a Nikon LS 8000 for medium format (but I still like a traditional B&W print) but nothing worth much mention (Epson 2450 for 4x5) to scan LF film and a Canon Pixma Pro 9000 to print......my question: Is it worthwhile to try to print traditionally my Color negs?.....especially my 4x5 and 8x10 ..........not to compare the ability to enhance or alter digitally but rather a print of say the max of my inkjet printer versus the equivalent size printed traditionally......
......Is RA-4 still a worthwhile process to learn?........I have chemicals and paper...all out of date but likely very usable .......
...or should I just nix the whole idea and opt for a current flatbed scanner that is still only consumer grade......keep in mind I want my LF print to look like LF prints..If I wanted less I wouldn't bother with LF...not to mention camera movements.....
