35mm Film Processing

[penzman]

I am debating on keeping my 35 mm camera. (for nightsky pics)

I never use it nowadays, since i went digital...

What is the average cost for 35mm film processing in LOS?

Thanks

From what I remember from my film-days.. around 200 baht for both developing and printing (36 prints, 4R size). You don't pay for the pics that they don't print because not in focus, not enough light, etc. Do it at a more modern looking Kodak shop where you can see their printing machines, with these also looking modern and the area generally clean and professional. Then you almost cannot go wrong and print quality will be higher than your average supermarket photo processing job you would get at home. (And perhaps just short of a proper photo studio at home, but that would cost serious $$$ of course)

Cheers,

Just developing is 35 baht

I now do that and then scan the negatives,

until I can afford the new Canon EOS 300d

which will accept my lenses and flash
