The Meek Speak

[brandonlouis]

After a few year hiatus from my Super 8 blunderings, I have decided to shoot a few things and see what happens. The first problem I have encountered is that my former processor has closed shop, most likely to be a beanie baby dealer or something. Anyway, I'd appreciate it if you guys could share who you use.
Thanks.

P.S. While I preface this by saying that I appreciate everyone's input into this forum, I implore you guys, can you please try to not turn this thread into a pissing contest with each other? It must be some sort of filmmakers "lens envy" or something.

Lens envy? I love it! I will have to plagerise this!

Sorry, cannot help, live in melbourne. Most here think super8 is a type of new v8 car.

Welcome, Brandon! I must apologize for the signal-to-noise ratio getting so out of whack around here lately, but hopefully you can still find some useful information and converstation among the rest of the postings.

For Kodachrome, there's Kodak and Dwayne's. For B&W, I've used Film & Video Services in Minneapolis. See the list of resources on the Supplies & Services page on my Web site. The link to the main page is below.

What is the turnaround time for B&W?
Thanks!

I'd say about a week, including time in transit. Depending, of course, on how you hit their cycle. You'd have to call and ask them what their current schedule is, as I haven't sent them anything in a while. I do have a few rolls in the 'fridge ready to go to them, however.

I think Super-8 Sound and Yale do same day processing if it's brought in early enough.

But they can't do Kodachrome.
Only Kodak Switzerland & Dwaynes.
I hear Yale is good for Ektachrome & Neg processing though.

I sent three to dwayne's today... time will undoubtedly tell.

Checking Dwaynes website is also an option, or perhaps Jenny can answer.
