Pro B&W Lab in Portland Oregon

[apdx]

Does it exist in this neck of the woods? I just moved; found a few

oldish (ca 2001) threads on colour only..

 

TIA

PhotoCraft, on Stark & 3'rd St. (320 SW Stark). Contact me off-group, and I'll give you my Portland phone #, and we'll gossip. Also, Quick Stop, on Washington & Third, specializes in B/W.

I like citizens photo, something like 7th and NE Morrison. What do you think of setting up a photo meet up sometime early mid june?

PhotoCraft is overpriced. Very overpriced.

Give Ivey a call and inquire about their fine art printing services.

Does Citizen's do custom B/W work? I forgot about them. I was just in there a few days ago too. it's just around the corner from Niki's cafe. (Grand & SE Morrison).

Try www.citizensphoto.com and and www.quickstopphoto.com for their services and prices. QS also has a couple drop-off points around town if it's inconvenient for you; don't know if Citizens does, but they would tell you.

Blue Moon in St. Johns advertizes b&w processing but I haven't used them.

Blue moon has some great service, i don't know about processing, but if they're anywhere near as diligent with processing as they are with sales. then i'd say they're good. I believe Citizens does custom stuff. If you need a few things, you could just go to Newspace and do it yourself. Also a great place.

I'm down in eugene going to school now, so i'm a little out of the loop up in Ptown. Wish i could be up there

I also endorse Blue Moon Camera in the St. Johns area of PDX. They do great B&W and will

spend as much time with you talking about exactly what you want. Also, neat vintage

camera goodies. I have bought plenty there. Mike Flannery

Thank you all. I made a few calls:

 

quickstop does machine processing, the lady could not say what developer - she was actually surprised.. developer is not like a champoo or champagne.. don't come with eggs and berries, there's only one true developer..it comes in vodka bottles to confuse competition.. they print silver on bw paper, chromogenics - on colour.. lowest prices, quick turnaroaund.

 

Blue Moon lady was very nice and accomodating: it's either outlab or a hand-processing by a contractor in Rodinal in-house, reasonable prices ~6 a film + $6 per contact sheet.

 

Photocraft: Xtol in dip&dunk, $7 per film (35 and 120), $2.05 per 4x5, contacts by 13:00 next day $6.30

 

Citizens Photo: website is ugly and that's encouraging on one hand - no computer geeks around, just artsy types, on the other hand they may be too cheap, saved a fortune on web design.. we'll see. Process by Tmax developer in a rotary machine, prices slightly lower than at 2 and 4. ("let me see, what are we using for a developer these days...")

looks like they try supermarket way from the number of business activities they are involved in.

 

That's about it, I will try to follow up on the output/printing and real life outcomes when I get there.
