Professional Film Developing in Dubai/UAE???

[patrick_f]

Hello, I am currently working in Dubai/UAE and would like to have

several rolls of E6 and Black and White film processed before I go

home, as it may be several months. Furthermore, I want to avoid any

potential x-ray machines! The problem I have discovered is I cannot

seem to find anywhere worth a hoot, and most places look at me like I

have 3 heads when I ask if they can handle E-6! Does anyone have any

idea where there may be a quality lab in the UAE? Mostly I am trying

to develop medium format film...

Thanks!

Patrick

There's a well-stocked Fuji pro store at the Sharjah Mega Mall, about 15 mins from Deira. I have seen Konica shops in some of the other malls. I'm assuming that Fuji store could handle your needs, and if not, they should be able to direct you to some place that could.

Alternatively, you could call any of the slick magazines published in Dubai, or the Dubai Tourism Development Commission (which produces slick stuff), and ask for a lab recommendation.

 

Here's one place to start:
