>>[Austin] That's funny.  Most ALL commercial print work, wedding work etc. 
is done with 'horrible snapshot stuff'....  What do YOU believe is better
for color print work?


Most commercial print work,magazine, is done w/ chrome I beleive.

[Austin] Some is, some isn't.  Weddings aren't done in chrome, VPS or 
similar is the staple film for wedding work.  Most studio portraiture is 
print, in fact, I don't know anyone who does people work in chrome.  Only 
commercial work is mostly done in chrome, but some IS done in print, hence 
why I specifically asked print...because the original post claimed C-41 was 
'horrible snapshot stuff', and I'd like to understand why that was 
said...and what is believed to be superior FOR print work.
