mailers

[nikon_junkie]

Do any of you use mailers for your film?

I bought a Jobo CPe2 but haven't had the time to invest in learning the ropes.

I think I saw B+H or Adorama had some for $16 and that sounded reasonable.

Now why would nikon_junkie post this question on Leica M forum?

Perhaps he felt like it?

I use the A&I mailers from B&H. I live in NY and they're in California - I would say the round trip, plus development, takes about a week for slide film, a day longer for C41 and maybe another day or two for B&W.

I find that they are very consistent, they don't scratch negatives and the return mailing is very well packaged.

Probably because I own two M3 and an M6, as well as a backbreaking amount of Nikon gear.

Thanks for the info, as I may give them a shot.

I use the Fuji mailers for all my E6 film and I'm very satisfied.. I've got a couple A&I mailers for 120 film, but haven't tried them out at all

I thought I read (heard?) somewhere that Fuji has changed its processing location for its E6 mailers recently. True? Do they still use cardboard instead of plastic mounts?
