Processing lab for B&W film

Post by jennym » Mon Jun 06, 2011 10:37 am Etc/GMT-1+01:00

I don't shoot much B&W film but have a couple of sheets of Acros that I need to develop. Given that I have only two sheets, it seems sensible to send them off to a lab to have them developed. Does anyone have an recommendations for a lab for B&W developing please?

Many thanks.
Jenny

Hi Jenny,

My local lab only does colour processing, so I've always sent my B&W to Peak http://www.peak-imaging.com/htmls/film_processing.htm in Sheffield. Never had any problems with them and usually get film returned within a couple of days.

Regards,

Rod.

Many of us do our own B&W processing, I'd do them for you.

A second for PEAKImaging. Used them for all my processing going back to my 35mm days.
