| 04:32.05 | jano | bork! |
| 04:32.06 | jano | :D |
| 04:32.21 | jano | talk to me about film! |
| 04:32.36 | jano | I shot my first roll of film since high school, what am I supposed to do with it now? |
| 04:56.48 | learner | heh |
| 04:56.52 | learner | you serious? :) |
| 04:56.58 | learner | get it developed :P |
| 04:57.34 | learner | take it to a photo studio somewhere that develops film |
| 04:58.19 | learner | avoid the pharmacies, walmarts, costco's, and supermarket development places unless you have no alternative or are in a rush |
| 05:03.34 | learner | ritz is one of the best "big chain" developers, often found in malls -- it's a total crap-shoot for the mom n' pop shops. |
| 05:04.25 | learner | If they sell professional film (i.e. they have a refridgerator with "the good stuff" in it), you can rarely every go wrong -- but you'll be paying triple |
| 05:04.45 | learner | ritz is about double the "rest", but usually well worth it if the roll has any value |
| 05:05.51 | learner | I've yet to find a good place for digitals from negatives (photocd's suck ass, as you probably noticed from mine) -- at least a shop you don't have to send your film to |
| 05:08.26 | jano | hmm |
| 05:08.29 | jano | thanks :) |
| 05:08.47 | jano | there's another format of film->digital, not photocd |
| 05:08.51 | jano | picturecd? |
| 05:09.01 | jano | there's picture cd and photocd.. one is good, other is bad |
| 05:09.06 | jano | i think |
| 05:09.23 | jano | i looked at film scanners earlier, they're not as good as I was hoping |
| 05:09.29 | jano | scanning film has it's problems :( |
| 05:09.40 | jano | unless you go expense |
| 05:12.23 | learner | both are just jpeg's on cd .. which are super sub optimal to what a scanner can give you |
| 05:12.49 | learner | yeah, I used to love jhu's forray of scanners.. used them all the time |
| 05:12.56 | learner | 10K nikon negative scanners |
| 05:13.52 | learner | i found the negative scanner at work finally just a couple weeks ago |
| 05:14.04 | learner | buried under a load of crap layed the gem |
| 05:14.29 | learner | old scsi interface .. had to really hunt for cables |
| 05:14.48 | learner | now i need to find a machine that can drive it |
| 05:15.33 | learner | i'm either going to have to load up a fresh windows box and install drivers or plug and pray for support in linux |
| 05:15.58 | learner | my new raid upgrade is up and running! =) .. |
| 05:16.01 | learner | sweet performance |
| 05:16.04 | learner | best on this box yet |
| 05:16.19 | learner | 53MB/s sustained writes from /dev/zero |
| 05:16.48 | learner | previous best was my new seagate.. came in at almost 40MB/s |
| 05:17.19 | learner | makes my older drives that only do 20-something seem slowly silly now |
| 05:18.03 | learner | I'll be able to sync the entire drive of the new server to the raid array now |
