Originally posted by cooltouch I have a few questions for everybody who contributes their C41 images here.
Do you have a favorite lab that you use on a more or less routine basis? What is the service(s) you go for besides just having the negatives developed?
I have two "local" (I commute ~70 miles, so one close to home, one close to work) camera shops I frequent. One just does C41 development, the other does B&W and E-6.

For 35mm: At first I did lab scans, but now I use a Pacific Imaging PrimeFilm XA scanner, which has better color, detail, and resolution than the lab's NORITSU KOKI.
For medium format, I'm currently making due with lab scans. Medium format (non-flatbed) scanners seem to come in two product ranges: Mediocre, and Professional.
