Kodak 126 film, who can develop it?

Jamie · 26th June 2008, 18:52

Hi Folks, I have an old Kodak 126 film which I suspect is holiday photos which include some of my late father on holiday in benidorm...I have no way of knowing for sure but my mum would love to see if there any photos that have never seen the light of day.

The trouble is....I cant find anywhere that is able to develop the film....can anyone help? Quite happy to pay for this, one photgraphers said it would be perished, But I also found a 35mm film which ran out of date in 1989 yet it developed perfectly.

Any helpers of suggestions would be appreciated.

Cheers

Jamie

It uses if I remember correctly the older C22 chemicals rather than C41 so will be a much more expensive solution than 35mm due to insufficient demand.
Being odd sizes has to be graded and printed by hand.

These are Good but around the £30 mark per film for reasons above.

Actually Yes, Not in use at Moment.
But doesn't take long to rig back up as required.
I also use unusual sizes by modern standards.
6 x 4.5 CM and 5" x 4" Neg sizes.
