Hi everyone!

I'm new to NYC and am wondering if anyone has any reccomendations on where to take BW film to have it developed. I don't have the resources (mainly a dark room) to develop my own so hoping to send out. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I lived in New York for eight years, used almost every lab there, and worked in a couple doing B&W processing and printing. But these days when I'm there, I use Color Resource Center for all my lab work. They have very good B&W (Xtol is their normal dev, but you can ask for others), they do very nice E6 and C41 work, too. Good clean lines in my experience- and good service, too.

They just did a bunch of 4x5 Tri-X for me a few weeks ago- same day turn-around was normal service for dev only, and they charged me less than $3 a sheet. Beat that.

Flatiron is cheap. I used to use them until I saw a friends transparencies processed by Color Edge. A few dollars more to get better processing is worth it. 68 Degrees is an excellent black and white lab.
