MINOX FILM SUPPLIES, PROCESSING anD SCANNING FROM £12.50
How to use process and scan your Minox Films
APS film stopped being produced around 2011 with supplies petering out from retailers by 2013. Any film you buy from any source will be between 1997-2012. Avoid most 400 ISO film, as it is too old. Before buying, check the film is unexposed (full circle, 1).
Recommended brands are Fuji, Kodak 100/200 15/25 or 40 exposures. Lesser brands such as Ferrania (used at jessops, boots, FNAC etc) have not lasted well.
Best film to buy: CN400BW (black and white) and E6 (Japan only).
Worst film to buy: 400 ISO - a gamble at best
We sell a selection of expired films one of the only retailers in the UK to supply it.
We can process and scan of course, with dedicated APS equipment from Canon and Noritsu -- so the film ends up back in the cassette as per design. We do not use a flatbed scanner.
Note that we are not offering E6 processing at this time to customers. The cost of the equipment has been high. We think we need about 20 films to process in a batch in order to use up all the chemicls. Their lifetime is not as great as C41 chemicals. We have around 8 films in the queue and testing is required.
Patience would be appreciated in awaiting processing. This is a evening/weekend business only.
