I just shot a roll of the 200D Agfa, but haven't sent it out yet. It is a shame costs are so high for color reversal, but I think Pro8mm's prices are worth it. I have tried to do every step separately in the past, but I realized that when you have a one-stop-shop like Pro8mm, you pay for good service and efficiency- First you buy a film+processing package, which is $45/roll, not much difference in buying, then processing thru different companies. Then, I would recommend looking out for Pro8mm's holiday sales on scanning. The all-inclusive packages are cost efficient, too, if you need it scanned right away- They also have image stabilization technology for scanning when you shoot with the camera locked down and that makes a great improvement; No more jitter. You can't get that with DIY. Other labs are good, too, I just happen to have good experience with Pro8mm. Anyway, It will save you a lot of work and effort in shipping if you have a one-stop-shop.
