1. The safest way possible to develop any film suspect in its condition, is into B&W. Developing into B&W means we're leaving the more resilient silver image intact. Once the B&W version of the film has been digitized, there is the option to chemically redevelop the film into color. This is called "film acceleration". Added to this, one of the biggest differences between Film Rescue and a company doing normal film developing is that all images are worked in Photoshop to improve them. This often makes a world of difference.
2. Should you be open to some risk, color film less than about 20 years expired can usually be safely developed into color directly with acceptable results. With Film Rescue, this isn't just normal color film developing. We're using a special high contrast color film developer (AN-6) that is from a company manufacturing it exclusively for us in Italy. Like option 1, all images are adjusted in Photoshop which makes a huge difference with expired film being developed now.
1. Develop my film the safest way possible into B&W negative (even if it is color film), scan, Photoshop and put images into an online gallery where I can download medium size Jpegs. For an additional charge, I have the option to upgrade pictures on a pick and choose basis or order my entire film accelerated into color on your next developing cycle. 18.00 USD per film plus 1.00 USD per recognizable image*. No image no charge.2. I can live with some risk. Develop my color film directly into color using your special AN-6 high contrast color film developer, scan, Photoshop and put images into an online gallery where I can download medium size Jpegs with the option to upgrade pictures on a pick and choose basis. (We don't recommend this if your film is greater than 20 years past it's expiry and/or if it has been stored in higher temperatures or other suspect conditions – with many older color films, choosing this option is as good as throwing the film to the wind) 18.00 USD per film plus 1.00 USD per recognizable image*. No image 18.00.
