After surveying our remaining customers who still shoot film, we found that the majority of users were planning to make the change to digital.

Because of digital transition, the decreased number of film photographers does not justify us keeping continuing processing services.

We are announcing that at the end of December 2008, we will discontinue all film processing services. We will also discontinue our cutting and bagging service effective August 1, 2008 due to dwindling supplies. We will, however, continue to scan carded negatives during 2009.

We are announcing this change six months in advance to give our film-based customers enough time to find alternate providers/suppliers. Please check out this useful photography group - Analog Photography Users Group (www.apug.org) as they will be able to help with your search.

If you are interested in help or advice on making the change to digital, we offer regular training on camera technique and workflow as the demand warrants.

We also have photographers who have made the transition that we can make available to provide one on one phone support. Please contact customer service or drop us an e-mail at digitalhelp@poundslabs.com and we’ll do our best to help you make the jump.
