Love that the scans are flat and enormous. I received my scans in less than 24 hours. So happy to have a local lab for all my film processing needs.

What kind of film can you develop?

Gelatin Labs develops:

35mm, 120, Advantix, and other sizes by request.
Color C-41, E-6, and Black+White film.

What equipment do you use to develop my film?

For most C-41 color negative film, we process your film in an all-new, state-of-the-art Colenta roller transport machine. With the most pristine color accuracy and archival wash stages, your film is in the best of hands.

For expired film and disposables, we use a well maintained Noritsu V-30 film processor.

Black+White is hand developed using special, secret chemistry (Kodak brand).

E-6 Color Positive slide film is developed using our handy Jobo ATL1000.

What equipment do you use to print my film photos?

We use DNP commercial printers to make our amazing dye-sublimation prints.

How do you recommend packaging film?

Most customers send film in bubble mailers via USPS. Media Mail is the most affordable service and is applicable to photographic materials.

We always appreciate customer doodles, Polaroids, and artwork as well. We’ll feature it on our Instagram!

What makes a Gelatin Labs film scan so special?

Please change to this copy for this FAQ on home:

Gelatin Labs is putting creative control back into your hands. Our film scans will have a flexible tonal range, which means that highlights, midtones and shadows are preserved. This makes editing a breeze. We deliver large TIFF files by default, storing more color and tonal information from your negatives.
