I hate to say it, Paul, but I'm noticing the start of similar problems at one of the labs i use. The problem has been solved - perhaps only temporarily - by requesting a specific person to process the film I bring in. Fortunately, there are other lab choices here ... I shot some test rolls yesterday and am going to have a different lab process the film. It kind of sucks to have to test the lab as well as everything else :-((

I still have a very nice darkroom.) But for much of what I do, I have to shoot color. The best lab in the area was consistently kinking my 120 film so that frame number one -- and sometimes number two as well -- was almost always ruined. My color negative film was frequently coming back dirty and scratched.
