alright, so, i am relatively new to this whole film photography business, and i have some anxieties about selecting/sending film by mail to get developed. i apologize if these might be basic questions, but i would rather get them off the table and stimulate a new forum (literally a new forum) of discussion instead of ruminating about them—or instead of doing something about the stuff in my fridge!
do i need a special package for it? do i need to protect it in some special way inside the package? i’m obviously going to be taking good precaution of packing, but i know the stuff is sensitive to heat and radiation, so it’d just be good to know i’m not missing a critical step in sending it in an airplane across the US or something lol.
what film lab have you had good experience with? or is there any place you would recommend? my current selection is reformed film lab, but i’m still open to any input.
thank you for your time.
Is it hard to get film developed in the US? In The Netherlands I can take it to a regular drug store and get same or next day development for a couple euros.
