The Pakons seem fine. Robert, I did not even know there was a mounter available. I just use scissors and my gloved hands. Kinda slow but I can see no way to scratch them doing this. I only mount the ones I like (I mount my B&W negs to print). If I am shooting chrome I have them done at one of the labs in town. They just got new machines and are VERY particular about their chems...They do mostly their own film so they keep a really close eye on the stuff, better I think than the labs that do tons of 35mm. In college we used to use the Pakons with out a mounter...hence the slide and scratch name I gave them. I discovered the Polaroid back them and really like the easy way they work.
