Can anyone share their recent/current experience for lab developing C-41 in Tokyo ?
I'll be in the area for two and half weeks, and if's there a professional and trustworthy lab there, I would prefer to develop there
instead of flying back home with undeveloped film.
8x10" C-41.

Google shows me Horiuchi, ProLab Create and "The Prints", but it's hard to tell if they do 8x10".

Any personal experience would be appreciated. :)

Thanks, Dan

Kubo-san at "The prints" is great, but he's a B&W specialist. I don't think he does C-41. Also, to get to his place you'll need to read Japanese.

Horiuchi Color's pricing page includes entries for C-41 processing of 4x5, 5x7, 8x10 and 11x14. Scroll down to the table labeled "カラーネガフィルム現像価格":

Afraid it's been more than 20 years since I've used their services, so I can't tell you anything about quality today.

Thanks Oren,
I was at their Kanda store today. They only develop in one location (not there) and have a 3 day turnover which is too long for me.
