Since the film isn't orange, you will get B/W slides. There is a lab in Los Angelas who can take any black and white film *Non T-Grain technology* and make it slide film. My local camera shop (Calumet) in San Francisco has a sales tech that does this all the time. The reason this wouldn't work so well with T400CN is that its got a C-41 style film base and looks somewhat orange. *And yes, he shoots leica ;) * - -Mark On Wed, 13 Feb 2002, Jeffery Smith wrote: > I'm not sure that a lab would do that for you.
