Re: Request for comments on image quality

So, working on the assumption that it is a problem with the digitisation of the negs.....

If I was to send on of the negs away to a "proper" photo lab for processing and ask them to make a print from it I should see a better quality of image on the returned print right?

I might try that, at least then I would have a comparison between the processing at Tesco and the actual image.

Interesting.....

TBH I've been viewing them either in Infranview () or through my browser (FireFox). I'll give Photoshop a whirl tomorrow and see if they look any better. I'm tempted to believe that it's the quality of the processing at Tesco that's causing some of it TBH. The prints that they've done display the same odd textures in the background which suggests that the prints were made from the digitised scans of the negatives.

I think I'll get a couple of the negs reprinted by a "proper" lab and see how they come back.
