i have the most darkest photography experience in my life today... ok here goes the story, i finish expose a roll of Kodak TC400 black & White film and on my way for dinner at Chinatown, i decided to send it for Index Print and have the negative film process at a FUJI lab opp Chinatown Point. after dinner, when i go and collect the index prints and negative films, i was shock that on the index prints some frame are yellowish, some are reddish and some siepa tone... worst still on some frame, a third of the pics are render more red, some with a red thick streak on both left and right side. i ask the girls and guess what she say?
she say this is normal as they don't touchup for index print and they ask whether i use any color filter... that was absurd, it's a B&W for god sake. i ask them did they do something on their chemical and she say her chemical is fine then i ask so does it mean my camera? as i did a B&W roll just last week and it's fine and she say could be my cam but i say not possible but she say it's all in the negative, the machine see what it prints so not their machine problem... i ask did u spoil my negative? she say no it's just the way it is. ****!!!!
i send the same films to another lab on my way back home but i think the negative film are already spoil by them... do u think they have use the wrong chemical for the B&W film by mistake?
cheers
