We develop 35mm and medium format.This can be colour negative (C41), black & white, cine film (ECN-2), and even cross-processed slide film (E6 in C41). If you’ve got an unusual format or a special development request, just contact us.
Do you develop disposable cameras?
Yes! Select the colour or black & white processing page, depending on the disposable type, and make sure to choose “disposable” as the film type. Then, send the whole camera to us.
How long does it take?
We aim to keep turnaround times under two working days. During seasonal rushes, demand can sometimes push that window a little longer, but the most up-to-date turnaround times are shown on our homepage.
