Subject: [Leica] was Video of M8 - now dip n dunk kink

So the dunk tank is not deep enough for a full length 36 exposure then?
I never knew that. There is probably a reason why a tank of chemicals to 
that depth is not practical.
Showing my ignorance here. I shall consult my friendly LUG ex pro Lab guy on 
this. 
Ironing sounds horrendous!
The only film I can recall having dipped by a pro lab came back with 
scratches anyway....sigh.
I found a good amateur E6 lab that does a great job with zero problems so 
far.
Btw, where are you located my vegemite tolerant friend?

Cheers
Hoppy

The kink in the middle comes from the film being hung over a curved  
holder, with weight clipped on to both ends down below.  Where the  
film goes over the curved holder, the film ends up with a kink that  
is nigh on impossible to flatten.  I might try ironing, if no ones  
chimed in with a better idea yet.
