Good question, Rick. I scan the negatives myself on my Epson 4180 flatbed scanner, being sure to scan the entire film, sprockets and all. Then I print them myself. That’s really the only way, I think, other than going to a costly professional lab.

One thing i was wondering is how do you get your your entire image, Brackets and all. I have not been able to get the printed.

I develop the black and white film myself but you can use any 35mm color print or black and white c-41 film and have it developed at a mini lab. No problem. The trick is that you get an odd sized image on the negative after developing. The image will be cropped if the mini lab prints it, also. It’s best to find someone with a flatbed scanner to scan the whole film section once it’s developed. Make sense?

Can you take the film to get developed, or do you have to do it yourself?

Yep, reciprocity was a huge factor in film photography. Long (and extremely short) exposures typically result in a loss of film speed (requiring additional exposure) The actual factor is specific to individual films and included in the film data sheet with all professional films. In color films there are somewhat predictable shifts in color specific to each film, also.

For example, a slide film might say that at exposures from 4-10 seconds you need to +1 exposure and add 10cc magenta filtration (I just made up that example).

I still have boxes of expensive Kodak color correction gel filters for this kind of stuff. Now I just click things with an eye dropper!
