FAQs

  • C41 is processed in our Kreonite dip and dunk processor where we run control strips throughout the day, and plot color information with special fuji software with our calibrated X-Rite densitometers. This allows us to make real time changes to the process which keeps your color the best they can be!

    Black and White roll film is processed in XTOL (or your choice of developer) in hand tanks, and large format is processed with XTOL (or your choice) in jobo expert tanks.

    EC2-N film is hand developed in professional grade hand tanks.

  • Dip and Dunk processing is the only professional, archival way to develop color materials. A well calibrated dip and dunk processor keeps the chemistry temperature consistent, doesn’t have rollers that scratch film, and washes your film to make sure it’s archival preserved!
