Are minilabs a meme? I want to shoot film and get the best out of my negatives but I know from personal experience that flatbed scanners are pretty shit and its what I have. The only alternative i hear of "professional' film shooters using is minilabs but I can't afford to spend 20$ a roll to get scans. I've also heard that in quite a few places techs don't know how to use the scanners and you get shit scans anyway.

Are film specific scanners better? What do you use?

Then don't use a minilab. Their scans serve consumers who want jpegs to upload on Facebook.

Saged because OP a /fgt/
