There are two types of slide film available, the
E-6 family of films (Ektachrome, Fujichrome, Agfachrome, etc.) and the Kodachrome
(K-14) family of films. We are only able
to process the E-6 family. The rule is that a film that has "chrome"
on the end of the name will always be a slide film. All formats of film can be processed. All film is processed in accordance with
Kodak process control.
E-6 color slide film is processed 3 days a week (48
hour turnaround)
