Film development and scanning for the everyday film community
A dedicated film development and scanning service, operating through a film drop-box system. We process using only fresh chemicals and scan in a maintained, dust-free environment. We offer high-resolution scans and are the most cost-effective film developing in the city.
See below for our drop-off, development, and pick-up schedule!

How
Bring your film rolls to our drop-box.
Grab an envelope from the envelope box and remember your envelope number.
Scan the QR code to complete payment and fill in the form.
Drop your film off into our mail hatch. Do not leave your film in the envelope box!
We will develop, scan, and send back your film on every second and fourth weekend of the month.
*Please drop off your film the Friday before each second and fourth Sunday to ensure your order is included in our bi-monthly development cycle.
Drop your film off anytime. The Site 94 drop-box is open 24/7.
Where
#1 - Near NAIT (Central Edmonton)
SITE 94 (24/7 DROPBOX)

Why
We strive to help our own community in filling the void for film processing in the city. After the closure of some local photo-labs we were fond of, we felt the impact of not having a trusted place to get film developed and scanned at the quality we want, for a price we could afford.
We want to make sure that everyone can continue to enjoy shooting film for as long as we can.

-
Yes, we do! They can fit in our envelopes (although snugly).
-
Please click on the icons of the film rolls above and they will indicate the pricing for either development and scans (standard), development only (you are bringing film for us to develop and you’re scanning at home), or scans only (you are bringing already developed film for us to scan).Item description
-
Our cut-off time is Friday the weekend before we develop on the second and fourth Sunday of every month. Check the calendar for specific cut-off times.
-
Negative pick-ups are on every second or fourth sunday of every month, after the sunday your scans are sent out, between 12-5pm.
For example, if you got your scans sent to you on the second Sunday of the month, you could pick up your negatives earliest on the fourth Sunday of the month.
Negatives can be picked up at Site 94 (12002 94 ST NW), not ANNMS shop, and must be picked up within 2 months or they will be disposed of -

🥼 Developing
-
If you’ve somehow exposed your roll due to camera malfunction and your roll turns out blank, we are not currently offering refunds for blank rolls.
-
Yes we can! We’ll also add a stabilizer while developing, because older film emulsions do not come with a pre-built stabilizer.
-
Yes, we’ve gotten quite a few inquiries on ECN-2 and E6. Right now we’re figuring out how to manage volume, and do not have immediate plans for it.
-
Not at the moment, but potentially in the future!
📸 Scanning
-
We use a high quality kit from the company Negative Supply, paired with a high dynamic range camera.
-
Our baseline resolution is around 6000 x 4000 px, but may vary slightly depending on post-processing (e.g. 5550x 3300 px). You’ll find our resolution is double the typical resolution on big box store scans!
-
No, we currently do not offer prints, and all pricing is inclusive of development, scanning, or both.
