Nojus Drasutis Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Hi, I was told by a colleague that there are no labs in Europe doing contact prints? Is that true? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Rodin Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Mosfilm might be still doing contact prints. At least a couple years ago, if I'm not mistaken, they had working printers, a timing suite and ECP processing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfried E. Keil Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 There are still some labs left, but do not trust the laboratory directory of the website of Kodak. For 16mm and 35mm prints: Germany: TF Cine Nova, Wiesbaden Andec Film, Berlin Belgium: DeJonghe Film Italy: Movie and Sound, Florence For 35mm prints: Italy: Augustus Color, Rom L`Immagine Ritrovata, Bologna UK: Cinelab, London I am sure there are some more. But these are the ones, where I know that they are saying, that they still offer this service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted November 27, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted November 27, 2017 Still have the 16mm step contact printer from my former lab (1999‒2008) together with the light control system Memochrome we developed and put in service in 2007. Plans are to reopen a lab here. What’s your mileage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nojus Drasutis Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Maybe in future this would be really interesting. For now, I need to create a contact print for 35mm 4perf negatives (~2000m/~6560ft) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted November 27, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted November 27, 2017 I can offer you 35mm step contact one-light copy on a Matipo Debrie, full frame or Academy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Aapo Lettinen Posted November 28, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Italy: Movie and Sound, Florence Has anyone else had any experience with this lab, I tried their Black Friday developing deals this Spring and ended up never getting my hard drive or developed film back (they screwed up the return shipping: sent with Italian post with non working tracking service which transferred it to who know else which transferred it to UPS and UPS did not send me the changed tracking number nor send any notifications for delivery attempts so I could not get the shipment the first time... then it was returned to Film and Sound and they refused to send it back to me unless I would pay them another 35euros for another shipping try (the shipping error was clearly their fault so I wanted them to pay the 2nd try and charge UPS for the error... ) . ended up in conflict with them with getting all caps emails and never getting my stuff back which was already fully paid for including shipping and everything) . I was just wondering at the time if their "lab" is some kind of Italian Mafia's web scam or if there really is a pro lab there developing film for real customers.... especially when the developing took close to 3 months plus shipping and communication problems with customer service etc :unsure: Edited November 28, 2017 by aapo lettinen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted November 28, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted November 28, 2017 The lab was/is run by Marco Pagni who is engaged with Film Ferrania. https://www.paginemail.it/pellicce-pelli-imitazione-sintetiche/vallina/movie-and-sound-firenze-srl.html He seems to be overwhelmed by the new task. Film Ferrania most probably buys chemicals through Movie and Sound. Typical italian entanglement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matej Pok Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Hi, a small film lab Bonton in Zlín, Czech Republic is still doing negative / positive development in 35/16 and also contact printing. They dont have good website, but they work on daily basys. For example - every wednesday they are developing ECN2 films ? They offer Arrilaser, but no scanning service. http://www.bonton.cz/film-laboratories.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan Fischer Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Interesting, you know their prices for ECN processing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
