Wash and dry your hands very well before you load, and you should be fine, as long as you are not a sweaty MacDonald's grease-producing factory. And try to hold the negs by the edges; when handling them, as may be inevitable during certain stages of loading, apply as little pressure as possible and they should be fine (I've never found a need to 'sandwich' my negs between finger-and-thumb).(posted 8992 days ago)That said, you should be fine. It's fingerprints after they're processed which drives me nuts, and with 67, this really seems to cause problems...be extra careful after they're processed.
