fotografr Posted September 27, 2006 Share #1 Posted September 27, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I know it's not being made anymore, but some existing supplies remain because it's not a very high demand film. I just thought I'd mention that if any North America users have Scala and need to find a processor, there is a lab in Colorado that still does it. As far as I know, they are the only one outside of Europe and they do a fast, clean job. Here's the link, in case anyone is interested: dr5 CHROME - Black and White transparency process + THE ONLY RELIABLE SCALA PROCESSING WORLDWIDE BTW, this is not an ad--I have no connection to this business whatsoever, other than using them to process my film.

ejd Posted September 27, 2006 Share #2 Posted September 27, 2006 I still have a few rolls of Scala, and used some in June to take pictures at a big party. Arkalab in Paris still processes it and sells it. (ARKA Laboratoire) Their service seemed to me very good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Confusion Circle Posted September 28, 2006 Share #3 Posted September 28, 2006 I have a roll left over...I'd better use it quick! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotohuis Posted September 28, 2006 Share #4 Posted September 28, 2006 There is a new Rollei B&W slide DIREKT film. Can be processed in the standard RHS developer. It is a orthochromatic microfilm based material to produce B&W slides with their negative developer. Slow speed E.I. 25 maybe till 50. Scala is also done by the Dutch professional lab S-Color. Another alternative for B&W slides is the Fomapan R100 film. But with the kit it's also reverse processing so rather time consuming. Scala can also be done in this Foma dev. kit. best regards, Robert Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozmo Posted September 28, 2006 Share #5 Posted September 28, 2006 There is also Main Photo & Imaging Service in California (mainphoto.com). I haven't used them, but they were recommeded by Toronto Image Works, who used to process Scala. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

richam Posted September 29, 2006 Share #8 Posted September 29, 2006 Yes. Stocked up on Scala and have about 20 rolls in the refrigerator. Develop myself as a negative and still get that "Scala look." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotografr Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share #9 Posted October 2, 2006 Yes. Stocked up on Scala and have about 20 rolls in the refrigerator. Develop myself as a negative and still get that "Scala look." I wasn't aware that was possible. Can you give more information (chemistry, time, temp.) please?

Don't have the URL anymore.Mike I still also have some Scala in the fridge. Do you use 1+25 or 1+50 for the Rodinal? Rollei has a new film ISO 50 B&W color film which you can develop in Rodinal too. rgs Luc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucklik Posted October 3, 2006 Share #13 Posted October 3, 2006 B&W color film? Seems like a contradiction in terms. Do you have a reference? Mike It should have been B&W slide film called Rollei Retro 50 Slide film direct. They also have a new chromogenic B&W film called Scanfilm CN400 PRO I saw it at the Maco booth at Photokina rgs Luc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotohuis Posted October 3, 2006 Share #14 Posted October 3, 2006 The Rollei CN400 pro scanfilm is a C41 colornegative film without orange mask. It's a color film, not a B&W chromogene film.
