Where to reverse-process B&W in Ireland/UK

Post by The Muid » Sat Jul 04, 2009 10:10 pm Etc/GMT-1+01:00

Hi all,

I've been looking for a while now for black and white slide film, and have recently come across a process to make B&W slides from regular film here:

Which I found here:

http://photo.net/film-and-processing-forum/00ICWd

Listed there I found a place in America that will do the process. This is their website:

http://www.dr5.com/

What I'm wondering is has anyone used this group for this process? What are the results like?

Also, is there anywhere that anyone knows of in either Ireland or the UK that provides the same service? I won't be able to do the process myself until I return to the college darkroom in September.


Thanks for your time and your help :)

There is a photographer on apug who uses the DR5 process all the time. Have a look here...

As long as you have a suitable film processing tank and a light-proof film changing bag, you probably wont need to use the college darkroom. Speedibrews make a B&W reversal kit which is sold by Silverprint and Retrophotographic complete with full instructions. :idea:
