Negative Scanning: Labs vs. Home

Hey Guys,

Just my two cents...After spending a majority of my career as a photographic engineer for Eastman Kodak you can trust me that high-end scanning is an art, not a science, and not for the faint of heart. the settings that produce a beautiful scan on one frame may or may not on another! There are just so many variables. So my suggestion is send them to a quality prolab, unless you are willing to spend a lot of time on the learning curve. Also, just FYI, Almost all high-end prolabs are still using the Kodak HR500's on anything that does not require a drum scan. so if you are looking to buy a scanner that is what I'd be looking at, but be aware it is one of the most complex scanners ever designed, and takes a lot of practice to master. For purposes of full disclosure, I should let you know that I am in the HR500 business, but I would give the same recommendation either way.
