But as the chip comes out of the digital camera so does the cassette. So "converting" is taking the film out of the cassette instead! Then there's nothing else you can do with it. NO make that "stop bath." Once it hits the stop bath its all over. No more trips to the water bath or whatever. I don't even know becasue if you stop bathed your film but then stuck it in water again and got all the acid out could you not develop it some more? So it's still a NEF file untill you hypo it.
