I also have this problem from the lab i use(1 hour)anf had one of my best film horse rolls ruined with a scratch right were everyones head is.The two presentation shots were the only ones not this way so i can sell those 2. I have taken negs in to be reprinted and were there was no scratch,there is one now and sale is off.D'ohSeveral negs of prints i sent to Hallmark Cards in my portfolio for calanders are now scratched.Hopefully thay wont pick those:) OTOH i have had problems at the "pro"lab i take my B&W to.Some scratches and lots of water
marks ,dust ets,so i think its a univeral problem. Dave
