From my experience, direct print is not good cos the shadow details will lose a lot....
Radiance Select is better but I am not sure if pro lab still have this.... I overheard that Color Six does not have Radiance Select now...
Cibrchrome is the best and it looks like the original slide ka.... nearly no lost in shadow details (at least my eyes cannot distinguish).... too bad that as Cibrchrome uses some poison materials... therefore, cannot be imported to HK ar..... I wonder which country still have it tim....
Before, I have called Kodak and complained about the quality of direct print. You know, the technician advised me to drum scan the slide and print it out.... He said, the quality will be much better than direct print.... ai.... what a reality!
