Film Processing & Developing
How Do You Get Film Processed?
It used to be that film was so ubiquitous that film processing was done in every grocery store, but the days of digital photography have changed dramatically. Today, your ideal solution is to work with a photography lab. We’ve been in the film and photography business for over 20 years, operating out of our studio in Los Angeles, California.
Film Processing VS Film Developing
Simply put, processing and developing are the same thing and we use the terms interchangeably.
Options for Film Processing, Scanning, and Printing
When ordering with us, you choose how much work you need to be done. We can simply process the film and send you the negatives, or we can scan the images into digital files and/or print photos.
FILM PROCESSING ONLY C41, B&W, OR E6.
Processing refers to taking your film from camera rolls and preparing it so that the film can be scanned and/or printed. You receive the negatives.
FILM PROCESSING + SCANNING
Process your film and have it scanned at the same time in small, medium, or large sizes (72 or 300 DPI Files). Scans can be provided via FTP file transfer for free download or can be burned to a DVD or thumb drive for an additional cost.
FILM PROCESSING + PRINTING
Develop your film and print at the same time. Choose Your Print Size (4×6 to 6×9) & Paper Type (Matte, Glossy, or Luster)
FILM PROCESSING + PRINTING + SCANNING
Process your film, scan, and print at the same time. The ultimate package.
