I know that only I can answer the question, but would love to hear
from others what they've chosen, and more importantly - why?
Digital darkroom (Epson 4990 & Vuescan) because I can actually use it
(with a busy job and a young family it's much easier).
I develop film in the kitchen, edit on a lightbox, and scan what's
worth scanning.
I get prints from ColorMailer as they have a very good pro lab in
Switzerland (color profiles, all that...)
Main advantages : no middleman, I buy the products, I control the
whole process and I don't have to release the neg to get a print
anymore. Also I still shoot film because I want an analog archive for
my work and I don't know anything that will rival a well-fixed-well-
washed b&w neg. And I want to retain the ability to print my pics the
old way... whenever I'll have the time to set up a real darkroom !
