  • xpost from the film processing thread, where to get your rolls done, 2018 edition:

    best in London if you're not a professional - Rapid Eye or Chan Imaging
    best in London if you are a professional - PM me
    best out of London for budget - Snaps Photo Services, Bournemouth
    best out of London for quality and best overall for the price - Palm Labs, Birmingham
    best if you need super 8 film done - Gauge Film, Birmingham

    strongly advise against: eyeculture, photofusion, west end imaging, any snappy snaps/boots/asda
    less strongly advise against: aperture, bayeux, metro

    I understand if anyone disagrees with this list, fact is I've used every single place here several times and I have their rep also from others and people that work in each place. happy for other opinions.

  • That's very kind platypus! Cheers

  • Thoughts on filmdev? Used by quite a few on here. Only 4 quid a roll and Ive only had good results from it

  • best out of London for quality and best overall for the price - Palm Labs, Birmingham

    I'm in Birmingham and use Palm Labs, and they're great. Run by a really friendly guy who cycles. Perhaps more at the pricier end for C41 compared to Filmdev for similar quality. B&W and E6 work out being competitive though as they charge the same for everything.
    However Palm do dip and dunk and are more than happy to push C41 which some places can be sniffy about.

    Goodbye Fuji Natura 1600, used my last couple of rolls at my wedding a week ago. I guess digital only now for low light hand held colour without flash
