Yes, there are two ways now of making commercial proof sheets – with photo paper exposed through a Print-File, which causes a bit of blur because of the thickness of the plastic; and in a digital processing machine, for example a Norita, which color-corrects & perhaps even sharpens each frame separately. One way fuzzes everything a bit, & the other makes the negatives look better than they are. Neither is as accurate as the oldest-fashioned way of putting the negatives in a printing frame, under glass & over photo paper.
