Choose the correct service
Development only
Your negatives are processed without digital files.
Development + JPEG Standard
The practical choice for viewing, sharing, everyday editing and standard prints.
Development + TIFF Standard
Choose TIFF for greater editing flexibility, professional projects or long-term archiving.
Push and pull instructions
Choose Push +X / Pull −X only when the film was intentionally exposed at a different ISO. Mark each affected roll clearly—for example Push +1, Push +2 or Pull −1.
Formats: 135 standard, 135 half-frame, disposable camera, 120 medium format, 110 pocket film and 4×5 sheet film. Quantity means one roll, one disposable camera or one 4×5 sheet.

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.

Before you order
Frequently asked questions
Do you offer local pickup in Berlin?
Yes. Online orders can be collected at Berlin Photo Studio, Nazarethkirchstraße 41, 13347 Berlin, when local pickup is available at checkout.
Can I send my film rolls by post?
Yes. Place the online order first, then include your name, email address and order number inside the parcel before sending the film to Berlin Photo Studio.
How long does film development and scanning take?
C-41, black and white and ECN-2 usually take around 7 working days. E-6 and Scala usually take around 7–10 working days. Workload, format and special requests can affect these estimates.
Which film processes do you develop?
We develop C-41 colour negative film, black and white film, genuine ECN-2 cinema film and E-6 slide film in several photographic formats.
Can I choose JPEG or TIFF scans?
Yes. JPEG is practical for everyday use and sharing. TIFF is better for deeper editing, professional printing and long-term archiving.
How long do you keep developed negatives?
Negatives are stored temporarily and should be collected promptly. Uncollected negatives are disposed of at the end of the following month unless another arrangement has been made.
