Hey, I'm new to APUG and this is my first post. I came across a great deal for 2 boxes of Kodak Ektachrome film expired in '96. I was curious if anybody has labs they swear by for developing and scanning. I only have an Epson 4490 right now and it does okay for most images, but hopefully plan on upgrading to a V600. My local lab doesn't cross process anything, because they say it contaminates the developer. I don't know if that's true or not, so I'm looking for a recommendation.

Thanks,
Levi

I think you will find that the attitude of your local lab is quite common.

I never had any questions when crossing. Not even C-41 souped in E6! How about that, eh?

Cross-processing does not contaminate C-41 or E-6 chemicals. Your lab just doesn't want to do it.
