Praus Edgar G Productions

Fantastic processor of film. I have sent many sheets of 4×5 C-​41 film to Praus and have always gotten a quality result back. I have been on the lookout for a lab that offers the best value for processing, and Praus is the best I’ve found.

I sent in several rolls of 35 mm for e-​6 and c-​41 processing. I asked for the e-​6 to be mounted.
The e-​6 came back unmounted. Not really a big deal since I was not charged for it.
What I found after inspecting my negatives and slides was the truly atrocious part. The negatives were filthy. I do not mean that the outside the plastic negative sleeve was dirty, but inside. There was a ton of dust, some sort of hair (animal?) and some sort of dried liquid on the negatives. Also a lot of the negatives and slides had scratches on them. I thought it might be from my camera but it is on some of them, and not on others, and the scratches are not similar.
The actual processing seemed ok, but the level of filthiness was a joke.
Look elsewhere for your processing needs, unless you enjoy dirty, scratched up negatives and slides.
