    Shipping Film

    Local processors are of questionable reputation here in Italy. Is there a safe method of shipping 4x5 Ektachromes to the States through the mail during the sum mer months?

    Why shipping your film to USA ? I cannot believe that all processors in Italy ar e incompetent, look in large cities. Anyway you would ceratinly find a proper o ne in Switzerland or an EU country the later would make more sense as to customs and VAT.

    When I lived in Japan in 1966 and 1967 I was amazed at how awful transparency film processing was in the Tokyo area. So I started mailing my exposed film to San Francisco for processing.

    Send your film to Interphoto in spain. They are top of the top on slides and C-41. Serious and fast. Check on youtube to see their machinery.
