I know the conclusion seems provocative. It is meant to be ;-) But it is confirmed by my personal experience of SELECTED minilabs using good processing/printing hardware, with clean, dust free room, and, most important, capable, proactive, literate and friendly clercks. Those have provided me with prints, up to medium sizes, that have nothing to envy from the high end pro labs I've tried. They provide me with immediate access (1 hr) to those prints, which in turn enables me to get them almost immediately to the customer or the friend who needs them. They offer me a price/quality/convenience ratio that remains miles ahead of what I get from from my scanner/PC/inkjet setup. This works only for color negs of course. E6, prints from slides and b/w are other kettles of soup...
