We truly appreciate the referral and really do our best to do this right and not embarrass those who do so. Oh and thanks to those that recommended us. Even if it's terrible you can later send us the negative and we can most likely improve it a good deal. Often what we can do is night and day in comparison but if your film happened to have held up well overtime the differences can be small. Basically we do all we possibly can but depending what you order a single roll of film can get quite expensive when comparing to a local provider. Once developed we can print from both black &.

Once you select a picture it is reopened in Photoshop and further worked before burning to disc or burning to disc and printing. We offer a Black & White and Slide (E6) film processing service, this is available for 35mm and 120 film formats. Everything is then scanned, a quick digital fix-up is done and it is then uploaded for you to preview where you can pick and choose the pictures you want. Our color process for this film is not C-41 but instead a high contrast aerial film process called AN-6 which does a lot to put some life back into the negative but it also brings up the film grain. Not too likely you get nothing at all in color if the film wasn't in heat. Processed into a B&w negative is definitely the safe way to go with it but with as much as you have I'd been inclined to test in color first. We offer film processing for 35mm, 120mm. Developing film starts from 2.50 per roll. If it was in a cool place then yes probably you will get some kind of ok color from it with special attention. Printpoint has more than 10 years of experience of film processing. Normally our rule of thumb for our developing not being significantly better to normal developing is 8 to 12 year past its process before date.

For instance a Kodak Gold plus will turn out different than a Kodak Gold Ultra stored in similar conditions.Īll this said.your film is getting on the long end of borderline in terms of vintage for salvaging a decent color image. Even within a brand there are differences. This is to say nothing about the quality of the different brands but only that over time the Kodak held up better then the Fuji undeveloped well past its process before date. For instance we find that Kodak brand film has stood up undeveloped over time much better than Fuji. If you have different brands of film though, you can not assume that because one brand turned out well the others will follow suit even if they are of the same vintage. With closer attention better scans or prints are often possible. When this is the situation you end up with a very magenta colored print. Often the biggest problem with film of this vintage is that whoever is printing it is not paying close enough attention to what they are seeing on their color analyzer and are not compensating for how the film has faded. What I'd do first if you're willing to spare a roll is take one into a good reputable lab and tell the technician what your situation is. again, it is a matter of finding clerks who are good at what they do and enjoy putting in a little extra effort to satisfy the customer. I can get film prints from my local Walgreens that rival prints from St. Printing means for us something that completes every image and we are.

And, yes I've have seen clerks who have allowed machine prints of a whole roll of film that had nothing on it. just to see if you have a printable latent image on film should be about $5-6 a roll. tweak images with digital software, save/size, print the ones you want. *Online and postal services and prices may differ from those in store.ĭigital film scans are returned via WeTransfer as Jpegs, unless you select Tiff files which are returned on CD with your films (or on your own USB stick).You can request develop only, no prints, digital scan to disc.
