Anyone know how much 35mm film (36 exposures) like Ilford XP2 Super and BW400CN cost in Singapore? What about film development and scanning? Thanks!

Cost = $2-3 per roll + $3-4 for C-41 processing.

Scanning can cost more, say $5-10 per roll depending on quality and package deal (ie process + print + scan).

For this reason, I don't scan.

I just had two 36exp. rolls developed with single, matte prints and a CD, plus a roll of 36exp. Fuji Reala film, and my total bill was around S$30.00.

Wow, I thought development and scanning will be cheaper in Southeast Asia compared to Canada but I guess not. I guess I'll bring all my film back west for development.

Keep the exchange rate in mind, SGD1.00= CAD.68. Singapore is the most expensive city in SEA. Travel in any direction from Singapore and everything gets cheaper.

I told you. Don't scan.
