John, what did you pay for that one?
You have a film processor? What the fuck?!
I don\'t think anyone is going to literally kill her. She\'ll probably just get thrown in jail and get raped a bunch.
I imagine, with the millions of soccer moms that are no longer shooting film snapshots, that the market is flooded with film processors. Meanwhile, the price of good color processing is slowly climbing. I saw two Noritsu minilabs on craigslist here in dallas for like $400 each. That's less than a D40. I don't do enough volume, but if I had a garage or something, I would probably start a small-time photo lab. With what pro labs charge for MF/LF color processing, I'm sure I could get enough business to keep the thing running.
The chemistry isn't really too cheap from what I understand though. Either way, that's awesome and I hope you can keep it running for a while. I hardly ever shoot color, and normal BW developing works fine for me. Either way I'm pretty jealous. It has a dryer incorporated, right?
Luke that is such a cool setup! I've seen a few minilabs for sale but they dont really fit in a 1 bedroom flat!
