Dust on the Negative
May 9th, 2009
This picture shows an example of a print made from a negative with dirt or dust on its surface. Be very careful when handling negatives because some dirt is difficult or impossible to remove. If dust, dirt or prints appear on a new roll (not reprints), the problem most likely occurred in the lab. This problem should be very rare, but can happen. These specs will always appear as black on the negative and white on the positive or print.
