Hi Roger,
>Is anyone familiar with the Kodalux or Fuji processing
>that can be purchased along with the film.
Recently I have bought a lot of film with Kodak mailers from B&H, mostly
slide film. I have been tracking turnaround time and it has averaged 8 days
for the last 48 rolls of slide film (I keep a log). Turnaround time has
been roughly the same for my limited experience with print film. Both slide
and print film now go only to Fair Lawn, New Jersey, despite what the mailer
may say.
I have gotten excellent results with this processing. The only 'accident'
with processing that I had was one film cassette that open in transit to
Kodak. I had flare damage to the first 6 pictures on the roll. They sent
me a form letter recommending that I use a plastic film canister when
mailing film cassettes. They do fit in the film mailers.
B&H is has been very good with my film orders but I recommend that you be
very clear with your sales rep. I am still waiting for replacement of wrong
film sent to me. I ordered 20 rolls of Kodak Ektachrome E200 Professional
USA (don't forget to specify USA if that's what you want) and they sent me
20 rolls of Kodak Kodachrome 200 Professional (does anybody use that
stuff?). I insisted on a call-pickup and they picked it up the next day.
I'm still waiting for the replacement. I know they had stock because I
received a subsequent order last week.
