8mm and 16mm Processing
Our processing standards are excellent. We have been processing all sorts of film since 2011 and we're glad to say we've never lost a film! We utilise both hand processing and machine processing in our workflow.
Reversal Processing
We usually hand process all reversal film due to limited volume. Unfortunately reversal film isn't as popular as it once was so hand processing allows us to mix up relatively small amounts of chemistry and keep turnaround times down. We process all colour reversal film in E-6 chemistry and we process all B&W reversal film in D-19 chemistry. If you're not sure whether your film is E-6 or D-19 compatible please don't hesitate to drop us a message and we can advise.
Negative Processing
We have our very own machine processor being built and it should be with us by the end of 2020. Whilst we're busy converting the lab to install the new processor we are shipping all negative material to Andec for machine processing. We send a parcel to Andec via UPS every Tuesday evening. We've been using Andec for our overflow for years and their processing standards are very high.
Push & Pull Processing
We can push and pull negative film at extra cost.
We process three reversal films per tank. Unfortunately this means we cannot push or pull a single reversal film to increase or decrease exposure. We can however push or pull three films at a time in the same tank.
Processing Old Film
We do not process old film stocks like Kodachrome or Moviechrome. The reason we don't develop old stock is simply because they are long dead and not likely to make a comeback. As a culture we need to invest in and support current film stocks and chemistry. We believe the best way to do this is by selling and processing contemporary film. The chemistry modern film uses is also much better for the environment.
