How We Process Your Film
Black and white film is not a single automatic recipe. Different emulsions react differently to chemistry, time and agitation. We use a controlled semi-manual process designed to preserve shadow detail, highlights, grain and the individual character of the film.
Our aim is a reliable negative with natural tonal information—not an artificially over-processed result.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does black and white film development take?
The normal turnaround is approximately 3–5 working days. Large orders or special processing requests may require additional time.
How do I know whether I need push or pull processing?
Choose push or pull only when you intentionally exposed the film at a different ISO. For example, an ISO 400 film photographed at ISO 1600 normally requires a Push +2 instruction.
Can I bring several film formats in one order?
Yes. Add each required format and service combination separately, with the correct quantity for each one.
Does the price include scanning?
Only variants marked Develop + Scan include digital scans. Choose Only Develop when you need negatives without digital files.
Where can I find colour or cinema-film development?

How we process
All films are processed with controlled chemistry, consistent agitation, and monitored temperature to ensure reliable and repeatable results. For C41, ECN2 and E6 processes, we use JOBO CPP2 rotary processors to maintain precise temperature stability and even development.
Black & White
Black and white films are developed using carefully selected developers such as ADOX Atomal 49, Rodinal, HC-110, or D-76. Each roll is processed individually, with development time, dilution, and agitation adjusted according to the film, exposure index, and condition. Using manual inversion or AGO rotary agitation, the process remains fully flexible — enabling precise push and pull adjustments.
C-41 Color
Color negative films are processed using Fujifilm Fujihunt chemistry following the standard C-41 workflow. Development is carried out on JOBO CPP2 systems with strict temperature and timing control, ensuring consistent color and density. Push and pull processing is supported within controlled limits.
ECN-2 Motion Picture Film
Motion picture films are processed using Bellini ECN-2 chemistry, based on Kodak’s original formulation. The process includes remjet removal, development, stop bath, and fixing, all performed on JOBO CPP2 systems to ensure stable temperature and even results. Push and pull adjustments are available.
E-6 & Reversal
Slide films are processed using Bellini E-6 chemistry, following Kodak standard specifications. This is a 7-step reversal process carried out under strict temperature control on JOBO CPP2 processors. While the workflow is standardized, push and pull adjustments are available within technical limits.
D67 & BW Reversal
Black and white reversal films are processed using Foma reversal chemistry, following a multi-step process including first development, bleaching, clearing, re-exposure, second development, fixing, and washing. This process is carried out with controlled temperature and timing to achieve clean positives with balanced contrast. In addition, standard black and white negative films can also be processed as reversal (positive) upon request.
Scan Specification
- Our standard scan resolution delivers quality up to 5000×8000 pixels, ideal for digital use and standard print sizes.
- 35mm scanned using the DSLR Nikon D810; 120, 110, 4x5 scanned using the Sony A7RV
It's important to understand that the final scan quality depends not only on the scanning process but also on the condition of the negative. Underexposed or overexposed films will produce different results in terms of grain, detail, and shadow and highlight rendering.
Film age and storage conditions also play a significant role. Expired or poorly stored film can lead to color shifts, fogging, or loss of sensitivity. Additionally, repeated or strong X-ray exposure may introduce base fog and reduce overall image clarity.
PRINTS & NEGATIVES
After receiving the scans via Wetransfer we will ask you if you want to print any picture.
Prints and negatives are available for pick-up at our store.
If you’d like them shipped to you, please contact us—shipping fees apply.
In alternative you can select film shipping at checkout or add one film roll to your order to make sure to receive also the negatives with it.
