Good but economical 8X10

[Ektagraphic]

Hi Guys- I am looking for some labs that will make me 8X10s from my 120 Ektachromes for under $7 but ones that are still pretty good. I know you usually get what you pay for but these don't have to be amazing. Thanks.

hello


Do it yourself: get a jobo tank, get a large tray for water jacket, get a tetenal or fuji 3 bath kit, and follow instructions, it´s foolproof and really cheap, even more if you start doing your own chemistry!

I would but most of the work I am looking to print is 120 Ektachrome and that is not cheap at all.

You have 3 options:
1. Ilfochrome, probably not
2. Internegative, great fun, but also probably not
3. Scan and send off for proof prints. I recommend the third if you just need proofs.

If you're prepared to post your slides overseas, BPD Photech in the UK will do 10x8 Ilfochromes for £6.20 ($9.60). A little above your maximum, but they might offer a discount for a large order.

4. Reversal process the paper?

While it may seem heresy, IMO the best way to work with slides it to take them straight into Hybrid processes. Find someone local with a good scanner, and take a trip to Costco.
