    Re: what 35mm film should I get?

    Another thing you should know, if you miss exposure the the lab will push the scans and this will cause grain. You may never know how bad you missed exposure. When you shot slide missing exposure will show up even more. It's far easier to blow out a sky with slide film. When I shot slide film I tell the labs not to adjust exposure and I deal with it in PhotoShop. It's always best to bracket your shots....

    Thanks Greg & Brian

    If I keep seeing good review about some of the flat bed scanners I'm looking I may go for one.
    The prices are on my budget (under $200 [I know, cheap budget])....
    I want to believe that a good scanner is going to give me better result than CVS..
    cheers
