That brings up a question I've had for a couple of months now. My primary lab recently got a Frontier machine. When they did, I noticed a change in the scanned images on the CDs I get with developing (cheaper than prints and I still don't have to do proof scans :-). With the new machine, the colors are much more "punched up" than before and seem to have a ton of sharpening applied. This isn't really a problem, because I only use those images as proofs and occasional web photos. Anything really critical gets rescanned and cleaned up in Photoshop. Is this something the Frontier operator could control? Is the control easy enough that I could ask them to reduce these effects just on my film, like special processing? TTYL, DougF KG4LMZ
