pics are from the photocd low res directory (let me know if anyone wants the high res version of a specific image).
The film was ASA 400 print film, and from the looks of these pictures, very very grainy. It could be that the film is old, maybe many years old.
In the outdoor photos, the camera seems to do well with a lot of light.
Indoors, it seems the grain is pretty intense.
I have a brand new roll of Fuji 200 in there now, so we'll see how that comes out in a week or so.
Definitely has a nice film look to it, and I need to work on some exposure stuff in some of them, but I first need to iron out the high grain stuff.
FWIW, the .JPG image sizes, even in the regular high res directory, equate to the about the sizes in my daughters 2 megapixel canon digicam in 2meg/fine res setting, and that camera has much less grain, and increased sharpness (though less film-like)
I asked the photo developing folks if they could tweak at all, and they said they had no control of the the .JPG compression from the negatives. Maybe I should select a couple out of here and print in 5x7 or larger, but I will probably wait and see how the grain is with new 200 ASA film.

So these aren't stunning yet. But wait until next week or so!!
