Processing

Nano lab processes colour super 8 and standard 8 film only. All processing costs $35 per 50' cassette (or roll).

Please print out and fill in the 'sending things to nano lab' form.

Processing of Ektachrome 64t and other E6 process stocks occurs on Wednesday each week. Films that then require telecine will be transfered on Thursday the same week prior to posting that day. Allowing 2 days for films to be sent to us by express post, this should enable films posted on a Monday to arrive back with the sender on the Friday of the same week. Please note that this is a new system for us and while every effort will be made to conform to this time line, there is no guarantee that this time line will always be adhered to.

Kodachrome processing takes aproximately 3 weeks.

Please note that nano lab is no longer processing black and white film. This service is still provided in Australia by Film plus in Melbourne.

It is worth noting that for those of you who do not require processing in Australia, a very economical processing service for ektachrome (e6) type films is available in the USA from Dwaynes Photo in Kansas. The turn around time for films sent from Australia is about 3 weeks to a month. It is most economical if you send more than 2 rolls at a time.

How to send your film

Just pop your rolls in a bubble bag and send them off to us with a completed copy of our 'sending things to nano lab' form

How to pay for your processing
We require payment with the film (cash, cheque, money order or direct deposit).

Postage costs are itemised on our 'sending things' form.

Bank details for direct deposits are on the 'sending things' form.

Cheques or money orders must be made out to RICHARD TUOHY.

International customers ONLY are able to pay with credit card using Paypal. Request a Paypal invoice.

Its nice if you can email us when you are posting film ( richard@nanolab.com.au ) .

How processed films are returned

All films are returned on plastic spools with white acetate leader on head (2") and tail (1"). Unless you state otherwise, we will use 50', 200' or 400' spools at our discresion.

Note: we can't be held responsible for items lost in the mail.


Ektachrome 64t as 40 or 160 asa:

This stock can be pull processed to 40asa or push processed to 160 asa for use in 40/160 super 8 cameras (see our Shooting Ektachrome 64t page for details) Again, there is no charge for this service, as long as it is requested in multiples of 2 rolls. Single or odd-number rolls cost an additional $10.

Above are two images of 64t push processed to 160. There is a noticable increase in grain. It must be remembered that push processing will not add light where there was nonet. Dark areas will remain dark. There is generally little or no increase in shadow detail. Rather, highlight areas that might not have had enough light to be fully exposed will be lifted with push processing, creating the impression of a faster film stock.
