Latent, the film-lab handoff machine

Editorial interest 85/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

Browser software that gives each film roll one job number, connects scanner exports to orders, and keeps customer scan pages from expiring.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

The workflow joins three identifiers that labs commonly keep separate: the shop order, the envelope, and the scanner entry. A seven-digit job number with a check digit catches mistypes, while dropped Noritsu or Frontier exports are matched to the corresponding roll. The page specifies 30-, 90-, or unlimited storage depending on tier, and says deletion pauses when an open dispute exists.
