Here in Los Angeles/surrounding area we have a few "offerings" for professional film processing. Here's my preferences:
Icon LA
Kodak chemicals for all film/print processing.
E-6/C-41/BW all formats 35mm to 11x14 via dip-n-dunk
www.iconla.com
Datachrome
Kodak chemicals for everything.
E-6 only 35mm->8x10. Small lab, but she(Rochelle Burch, owner/operator) does a wonderful job with my E-6 film!

Samy's Santa Barbara
Fuji chems for everything
E-6 & C-41 35mm->8x10 via dip-n-dunk. B/W up to 4x5 is done in a Jobo IIRC...

In Boston, MA You can get same day service for all formats E-6 up to 8X10:
Colortek (Downtown Bsoton)
Color services (Needham)
Dorian labs (Arlington, a bit far out)
I think they all do dip and dunk.
In Perth we still have two dip and dunk. Runnng three days a week. Giving Kodak the bird and moving to Fuji chemicals and reprofiling all their stuff for Fuji.
The big problem is the discontinuance of slide mounts for the mounting machines Kodak sold here. No 35mm slide mounting, theyre scouring the world for a solution!
Other problem is Ilford products have such slow delivery in Australia. Bernadette at Churchills says she often waits 5 months for a delivery chemicals and film etc to sell. So doesnt bother now.

Well colortek is deep, underground that is in their basement level outfit across from south station. Maybe thays where they always were.
I remmeber the bad old days of renaissance behind the cemetery... man there was something going on there. There was another place i am forgetting now, in southern RI (if there even is such a thing at all), that is south of PVD, on 95, that did custom framing, printing and E-6. I figured they are still around.
Of course there is the japanese lab in NYC, but who wants to give any business to that awful city (great lab by the way), along with insudstrial color but they seem to no longer do any actual film stuff...
I onc estoppedat a place in at a place in Bondi Beach australia, of all places that had a real dip and dunk machine. Granted that was in 2006, i am wondering if they are still around...?
I still do E-6 dip and dunk im now in Norwest however I am not interested in which labs still do it. What I want to know from people using other labs is what the staff in these labs have indicated about the longevity of this service and what are other labs intentions to continue this process via dip and dunk into the distant future.
