Disc Films
We can develop your C41A (C-41A) color disc (disk) film. We can also make reprints.
Processing
These films are older. Disc film is not comparable to new store bought Kodak film.
Expected Results
The film is processed as color negative; prints and CD (digital .jpg scans) are made from any images. Some color shift usually occurs. Results vary from fair to excellent quality. More than 95% of the films we process have fair or better results. (See also, "Notes" section below.)
Cost / Price
Cost for development, CD, and prints is US$36.50 per disc film with return shipping and handling $6.00 per order (not per disc). Therefore, one disc film is $42.50, two discs is $79.00, three discs is $115.50, etc. Free shipping on orders of more than ten rolls. International return, please add US$3 for shipping.
