Thread: Film and Processing in Auckland and Sydney

    Film and Processing in Auckland and Sydney

    On Monday I will leave on a three week trip through New Zealand (North Island) and Australia (Sydney, Alice Springs). To avoid any problems with hand searching and x-rays etc. I would like to purchase 4x5 sheet film (e100vs and tri-x) there and have it processed locally.

    Can anyone recommend labs for processing and shops for purchasing in Auckland and Sydney.

    Thanks

    Film and Processing in Auckland and Sydney

    Kevin

    For processing in Sydney, among others there's:

    The Lab, 10 Danks St, Waterloo or
    Tranny's http://www.trannys.com.au/) or
    Vision Graphics http://www.visiongraphics.com.au/)

    I believe that some of the city CBD processors have closed since I used them a couple of years ago

    These labs also sell film in varying quantities. The pro camera shops might be a better idea for buying film though:

    Foto Riesel Camera House, 364 A Kent St Sydney or
    Baltronics, Unit 4/ 2 George Pl Artarmon or
    Fletchers Fotographics, 317 Pitt St, Sydney or
    L & P Photographic, 96 Reserve Rd Artarmon (if desperate)

    If you need vast quantities of film you should consider pre-ordering.

    Depending on where in the world you currently live, you be surprised by the price of 4x5 film.
