04 / FAQ

Good to know

Do I need to order online before dropping off?

Yes. Please book your service in our online shop first and add your order number to the film – also for drop-offs at the lab or in Altona.

How long does it take?

Usually about two working days after your film arrives at the lab. E-6 is processed in batches and can take longer.

Can I send film from abroad?

Yes. From EU countries there are no customs. Scans are delivered as a download link. Returning your negatives to another EU country costs €4.99 per order – just choose EU return shipping at checkout.

Do you develop disposable cameras and 120 film?

Yes. Hand in disposable cameras complete, please do not open them. Medium format (120) is always scanned in XL.

Can I write to you in English?

Of course. Email us at info@spiekerfilmlab.de.
