I don't know PS very well. Seems like the inverting process in PS is taking away some of the clarity. I did check with my local library to see if they have a DSLR camera (Internet things service), and they currently don't. I'm beginning to wonder if I can improve the clarity with a proper backlight too. But I'm loath to purchase a backlight I only use for these auto racing negatives. I've been told that 70mm film from the 1950's/60's is pretty darn good. So I'd like to improve the quality. So after all this, Legacybox IS sounding like a pretty good option. Thanks!

IPhone might give you a decent contact sized print from the negative, but if you're looking to make nice enlargements, either a suitable scanner or Legacybox making Hi-Res scans for you is probably the way to go.
