Well-known
I did ask my local Costco film processing tech, she told me they processing lots of one time useing camera from outside.
I use cotco all the time too, their machine scratch my negatives, but they are so cheap and the prints look good, I told them about the scratches they said they won't repair the machine and when the machine will break they'll just stop developing film....We use the Westlake Village Costco for colour print film and prints. They do a pretty good job. [...]
We agreed we should have a refund. Very sadly, the photo guy at CVS couldn't understand why we didn't like the prints!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least he gave the refund though.
Ugh, I hate that. Today I picked up a roll from a place I wanted to try out. They did some VERY ugly lightening to the back of a friend's head. It looked as if i was shining a spotlight on his hair from a very short distance. Way to ruin a good portraitIt was obvious that the print machine's computer had been set up to artificially lighten and darken things. The result was horrific.
Same here , i have'nt shot any c-41 process stuff in almost a year since i cant process it myself. Theoretically i'm sure I could if i bought the chemicals , but then again I've got a digital camera for color.But I'm moving to nearly all traditional b&w material, doing my own. Myself I trust, and if I make a mistake I can't blame anyone else.
