The local labs around here do so little b&w, that there is a GUY that they all send it to... Yes, one guy, that does it all by hand. He will print contact sheets and that's it... Individual blowups he will also do, but at a pretty penny....

The local labs were scared that digital will make their business go bye bye, but now, more people are finding it annoying not to be able to bring pics to a party and pass it around, and so more are getting printed.

Also, with the digital "it's free to shoot, so I shoot a lot" mentality, they say the quantity printed has almost doubled here in Taiwan... the irony of it all... Digital freedom, means more prints then you would otherwise do with film..
