Re: [OM] PEN Half Frame Processing

[Skip Williams]

I've had success with one-hour labs processing 1/2 frame negatives and 
printing them 2 per 4x6 print.  It's best if you talk to the operator and 
warn them of the impending strange formats.
Your comment about potential problems from differing images on the same 
print is correct.  You really will have to get lucky there.
You obviously could scan the film and print your own.
