julia_schmitt1 Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hello out there! Does anybody have an idea, where in New York I could get my 120mm film roll processed (and cross-processed) with prints? Are there any >affordable< labs or retail labs that actually do this? After some research online, I found Ben Ness near Union Square, where developing is 3.99 $ and each print 0.95 $. Does that sound good? Today I went to a lab where developing + prints would have been 42 $ in total :(( Well.. Since I'm new at 120 films I have no clue what prices to expect. Does Target do 120 films? I'd be very thankful if anybody had a hint for me :) Take care and thank you, Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucecahn Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Hello Julia: There is virtually nothing in NYC which is any good that is cheap. The rents are just too high. I do not know the lab you mentioned but would be surprised if they were any good at all at that price. Adorama has a cheap lab on the premises, and sometimes they do a passable job--sometimes they don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randall_pukalo Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Best deal around is Fuji processing: $1.80 for negs developed AND 16 3x5 prints. Excellent quality too. Where you ask? I hate to say it, but thru and Walmart in the USA. Just put the 120 roll in the film sendout envelope, and mark the Special Instructions box at the bottom. Put "120 (or 220) C-41 print film. 2 week special service. 3x5 matte (or glossy) prints". In about a week you will have your negs and prints back. However, they dont do cross processing. Oh ya, 120 OR 220 slide for only $4.88!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert himmelright Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 my friend swears by ben ness, after seeing prints from there I can see why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
25asa Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Somehow the word "cheap" and "120" do not go hand in hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julia_schmitt1 Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hmm.. Thank you so far! Right now I think I might just take my rolls back to Germany where they develop and print for less than 5$ and the quality is excellent (believe it or not *!g*). It's amazing when you see how prices change from one country or city to another.. At least clothes and electronics are far less expensive here in America ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig_shearman1 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 It's not 120mm. It's 120. It's a designation, not a measurement. It's actually 6 cm, or 60mm. 120mm is about five inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranong Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 develop and print for less that $5! amazing. i heard europe was insanely expensive for this kind of stuff. another vote for sams club or wallmart. send out processing for C41 is 50 cents. my local sams does it in house in 2o min. for 1.50! eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
