i had a roll of panoramic 35mm from my holga printed at 3ple d like earlier this year. dude charged me an extra 7 bucks on top of everything just to do that extra 'cropping' on the computer. nehnehpok. so total i paid $17 for developing, scanning to cd and his 'cropping'. maybe you'd like to think again? haha. I ain't related to TripleD but have you ever tried sending your pano 35mm to other shops for scanning and finding out the price? :lol:

You can always say NO if you find it unreasonable. Maybe you're clueless, scanning 35mm with sprockets is equivalent to scanning 120 film. And other lab can charge up to $1.50 per 120 frame. But really, if you find anywhere else that is cheaper, do let us know. :lol:

yeah i am trying "sprocket" photography but i down to print the photos i just wanna process the negs. Hi sorry to dig up this slightly old thread, but i was just confused on one thing. they develop the whole roll in a container anyway right, so u dont have to tell them u want the sprocket holes developed cuz they develop the whole roll also, correct me if im wrong. i think the tricky part is scanning and/or printing because the pics are not standard size which will prob lead to extra costs. I myself am interested to do sprocket hole photos soon, i read in some other threads triple d does it for arnd $15 (develop + scan)?
