I'm looking for a good address to have Black&White 35mm film developed
in London. I tried Jessops but they took 2 weeks and the negatives had
lots of calcium deposits on them. Any suggestions?

Although this doesn't belong to rec.photo.digital, the traditional way is to
do it yourself.Buy a developer, some stop bath, some fixer, a changing bag,
a 35 mm tank and an apprentice's darkroom book and you 're all set.IMHO
that's the reason that (almost) everybody has gone digital, you don't have
all the hassle and you do all the processing with your computer, and anyway
what you gonna do to print your B&W photos?


I remember going through all that with my dad in the bathroom, fixer in
the washbasin etc.
