gfspencer Posted August 13, 2011 Share #1 Posted August 13, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) If you are still using file where do you get it developed? I used to develop my own black and white but it's been so long I can't remember how. Our local Wolf's closed a few years ago. So who do you send it to? Who do you recommend?

Advertisement Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Hi gfspencer, Take a look here US Film Developers. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
treeplanter Posted August 13, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 13, 2011 Would suggest you buy some chemicals and process film yourself, like you once did. Very easy, and with the internet, it's no problem finding detailed and concise instructions on what you need to do. If you'd rather not DIY, google "B&W processing labs" and I'm sure several will pop up that you would be happy with. Jim B. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomB_tx Posted August 13, 2011 Share #3 Posted August 13, 2011 In the US, Walgreen's still have 1-hour labs for color print (C41) film. The quality can be pretty spotty - and the negatives dusty; but they will scan (lo-res) as well as print. I use them when testing camera repairs. Some Costco also do C41 processing and scanning, but my local store hasn't done well. I've had good quality results from Dwayne's Photo (A trusted name in photo processing for over 50 years - Dwayne's Photo) - the last lab that processed Kodachrome (no more). They still do prints (C41), slides (E6) and B&W. Medium res scanning. Precision Camera in Austin still does good processing and hi-res scanning. I haven't tried their mail-order service. My darkroom gear has been packed away since I moved 15 years ago, but I'd like to set up again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
piblondin Posted August 15, 2011 Share #4 Posted August 15, 2011 I'm partial to Photoworks and Lightwaves in San Francisco and Richard Photo Lab in LA. They all to good work, especially the latter two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
psamson Posted August 24, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 24, 2011 In greater Seattle I use Kenmore Camera for my color films, and Moonphoto for my B/W films. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveO Posted August 24, 2011 Share #6 Posted August 24, 2011 I've used NCPS to develop, print, and scan color film. They are more expensive, but Ken Rockwell is very happy with them. I'm pretty sure they do b&w. DaveO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gberger Posted August 24, 2011 Share #8 Posted August 24, 2011 I shoot transparencies about 90% of the time, and I used the National Geographic lab in DC until it stopped taking "outside" work. I switched to A&I in California and have been satisfied since the changeover. You can download their pricing sheet. I have them return my film uncut, and I cull and mount the keepers in plastic (and the very few excellent ones in glass) for projection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
