Minilab machines crop a significant amount of the negative all around the edges. I talked to the managers of several labs and they say they have no control over this. But when you order an enlargement you can get the whole frame printed. Nevertheless, I still need 4x6's. I get contact sheets made for record purposes for my B&W shots, but even there I order a lot of 4x6 proofs. I just can't read contacts well enough to decide on enlargemnt and cropping, even with a very good loop. 4x6's work well for that, with a judicious look at the contact or negative. Jay Goldman
