    Processing of 4x5 sheet film in UK

    Eventually I hope to develop my own 4x5 film sheet, but if I want it processed in a lab, where in the UK is there a service for this? I looked at Ilford website, and it only mentions 35mm and 120/220 roll film.
    Thank you for any assistance.

    I would recommend Peak Imaging having tried quite a few different labs with one problem or another.

    Digitalab.co.uk in Newcastle are good. I do my own mono but send them all my colour stuff.

    Peak Imaging used to be based in Sheffield centre but moved close to where I live - mind you, I did quite a lot of business with them
    ...when I grow old, I want to want.

    Digitalab have always been prompt, friendly and reliable for me. They do a discount for 10+ sheets.

    I'll add another vote for Peak Imaging. I have a couple of labs near me in Brighton but they only seem to do runs once a week, so often Peak Imaging is quicker and I've never had any issues with them.

    I've used peak for 35mm, 120 and 4x5 over the last few years. Tried other cheaper places but always go back to Peak if i'm too lazy to develop it myself. Can't really fault em, usually a quick turnaround time too.

    Gents, help me out here. I've been dev and processing my own 5x4 b&w at home for some time, and now I've got some spare time, want to try colour. However, I don't understand how it works.. do I send my dds to Peak Imaging? and how do they ensure I get my own dds back? Best Rgds Dave
