Thanks! Have to add that the film was also x-rayed twice.

Lack of agitation is usually the cause, so who knows if they are using the rotary machine or processing manually.

Can you check the negatives? Looks like bromite drag.

Do you shoot more color or bnw? I'm developing bnw at home, C41/E6 at a local lab and scan everything with a DSLR. Scanning can be tedious, especially bigger than 35mm, and internet wrongly taught us that camera scanning is a way to go. So, at one point I wanted to try flatbed, bought v600 for 55€ and boy was I surprised. It is a lot easier to use, the colors are better, and the resolution is enough for online sharing.

So now I can choose which one to use according to my needs. For medium format - scanner, "I would like to show that grain" - camera, "Uh, I would like to post this shot" - scanner, "these colors don't look right"- invert the roll with Negafix...

My point is, create yourself a hybrid workflow, use the tools at your disposal. If in summer you tend to shoot more - outsource something to a lab, in winter collect few rolls, buy a developing kit and do everything on your own (or the other way around if you enjoy winter more).

Thank you! This one is point and shoot. It supports iso from 100 to 1000, which I like since i tend to push bnw film.

Thank you! I'm kinda glad it's not color so I don't have to crop out that orange trash bin😁

Thanks! Yes, I think XP2 is the only b&w film meant to be processed in C41 but I found article on Ilford's site about developing in HC-110, and so far I'm getting great results. This roll was even x-rayed at the airport. 🥲
