[Frameworks] [Experimental Film Discussion List] Super8 B&W help

[John Woods]

>carefully, not all labs are created equal.  Though I haven't used them yet, I usually hear great things about Pro8mm, though they are the most expensive.  I would avoid Dwayne's Photo for >Super8 (wasn't very satisfied with my transfer there).  I've had a pretty positive experience with PacLab out of NYC.  But ask around, cause that is a very touchy subject.


From what I've read online its rare to hear about a good experience with Pro8mm. They seem to be quite indifferent to small customers. This person had a very terrible experience with Pro8: http://www.cinematography.com/index.php?showtopic=57206

I've used Alphacine in Seattle a fair bit for 8mm and they have been great in my experience. Dwayne's is about the cheapest E-6 processing in the world and I've never had a problem, but I've never had them transfer the film either. Too bad they don't do B&W because the price is right!
