Mike,
Who do you have processing your film? I know there is Black's in Ottawa and we will burn up to 5 rolls on one CD at a time.

You may not believe this, but I take my film to the Photo Lab at my local Loblaws grocery store! They have a the same machine they have always used for processing the film, a machine I would guess isn't any different than Blacks. Last September they replaced the "old" optical printing machine with a digital printing machine, which means they scan the negs and make prints from the scans. It works very well with 4x6 prints, and the software in the machine nails the colour balance and exposure EVERY time. So now I don't even bother to get prints when I take film in for processing. I get the processing and they burn the scanned images to a disk. I then take the disk home and edit what I can, and most often there is something I can improve in each shot. Afterwards I dump the images I want prints for to a CD-RW and take those back to the Photo Lab for prints. They are even supposed to have the ability to download the prints via the net and pick them up at your own store soon.
Thanks for the tips on the 800 ASA Fuji. I think I will get some more to use in inside shot during my upcoming trip.
Mike
