We are very excited to announce our acquisition of a Noritsu minilab 3502, a Noritsu HS 1800 and A Noritsu V30 film processor. These are (or weere) state of the art film processing systems that used to sit in the back of every Boots and Woolworths store and always gave off that distinct lab smell when you walked in.
These machines have been purchased predominantly to facilitate the use of our free darkrooms (the developing film part is boring compared to using an enlarger and seeing your prints develop!) This means that we cannot sustain the volume throughput required to keep the chemistry of the machines in check.
Therefore, we are offering for 35mm film:
Free negative development
Base resolution (Image size ~1mb) development & scanning £4
Medium resolution (Image size ~4mb) development & scanning £6 a roll sent via email
High resolution (Image size ~20mb) development & scanning £10 a roll
Negatives returned (up to 3 rolls. £1 per roll after this) – £3.00
6×4 prints – £7.00 a roll including postage and packaging
Note: We also offer 120 film developing and scanning but due to the labour intensiveness of developing 120 film it is £5 per roll including base resolution scans. Also note for 35mm film please do not send more than 3 films at any one time or a surcharge will have to be applied of £3 per roll
Please send your films to:
ClickAsnap FAO film dev dept
83 High Street,
Wimborne
Dorset,
BH21 1HS
Then email Tom@clickasnap.com with your requirements
We run our machines 3 times a week so turnaround is typically 24 hours
Please note the films must be the C41 process
PS Don’t forget to add them to ClickAsnap once you get the scans back and you can earn money when your photos are looked at. It’s completely free to join too!

What value stamp is needed for 4 no. 35mm films printed and scanned?
Thanks
£5 should do it. Include a USB stick for the scans
Can I Use PayPal?
No need to scan, I’ll do it.
Tks
Yes, email tom@clickasnap.com for details
So not Black abd White then…just colour?
It depends, there are many black and white films that are C41 process
Hi there! How long are you running this for, and is it really just free if I supply an SAE for return of negatives? And only C41? Thanks!
Until we decide not to. Yes it’s really free and yes it’s C41 only
Hi so 120 c41 free dev and print ? Just supply sae? Thanks Louise
Yes, that is correct
Hi – I’m a bit confused by this
“This means that we cannot sustain the volume throughput required to keep the chemistry of the machines in check”
Please can you explain?
I thought that these machines needed lots of throughput and replenishment to keep active – which is what you seem to say. But with free processing, won’t this be the case?.
Yes, that’s exactly why we’re doing this. To maintain that high throughput 🙂
Can you do contact prints, on 10×8 paper? If so, how much would they cost? Thanks.
It would be about £5 per print
I’ve got approx 30 undeveloped film rolls..how would this work for me please? Many thanks!
Just send them to our address and if you only want low res scans then ensure your email address is in there and we’ll send them over to you
So if i were to send 20 rolls i would just have to pay £3 for the return of the negatives and you will develop and scan them free of charge?
It’s £3 postage but £1 per film to sleeve and post back. But, yes, development and low res scans are free
Are images assessed/ colour corrected after developing? Thanks!
No, photos are processed, scanned and sent to you as shot
Hi, what resolution in pixels are each of your three options? Thanks!
Depends on the image format, but if you google HS1800 scanner all those details can be found
Hi there – are you still running this? Have some films to send in if so 🙂
Hi, we are indeed still running this
If I wish to scan at home, is the cost of the service just the return postage
Yes, that is correct
Do you return negatives?
If you include a stamped addressed envelope then yes
Is the offer of free developing still on offer? I purchased a camera from a charity shop which had a roll of Ilford XP1 120 film c41 in it, I would like this developed and a low resolution scan just to see what’s on it. I would enclose a self addressed envelope and stamp to return the negs. If it is no longer a free service how much would the developing and scanning cost?
This free service will always be available,
It’s not just a special offer. Please send over the film with the SAE and we’ll get it scanned and sent back to you 🙂
So I ve got three rolls to develop. One needa high res scans other two basic scans.
Also, I want negatives back.
How it would work and how much would ut cost.
£10 for the hi res scan
£3 to sleeve all the negatives for posting
£3 for postage
🙂
Oh cool. How do I pay? Cheers
paypal
Hello, Thanks for this opportunity.
Can you send to America? What’s the cost if so?
We can just send the scans to you by email, no need to send them back to you by post!
Hi Tom,
Can you send the films back uncut, just rolled up and put back into the plastic tub?
Also I noted it is a maximum of 3 films per order – if I have 6 films should I send them as 2 envelopes with 3 films in each? Or do I need to send 3 films then wait a few days and then send the next 3 films?
Many thanks.
Hi, we’ve paused this service for now unfortunately
