Barcelona Labs

Don't know if this is the right forum, but...

There is the possibility that I may be in Barcelona this December. I usually travel with a digital Fuji X camera, but I am toying around with the idea of bringing along a film MF or 35mm camera. Any recommendations for black and white film sources and labs in Barcelona with 1 or 2 day turnaround? My other option would be to mail the unprocessed film back the the US--are there major drawbacks to doing that?

Thanks in advance.

Pieter,

I've lived on and off, over the years in Barcelona but it's been several years since I've been there last. I shoot film and process them always at Copialab. It's very handy to public transport in Grazia and they used to used do a great job for me (process and proof). They did have a quick turnaround for a price if I remember well. I would never send unprocessed film home by post FWIW though. I always process film where ever in the world I am to avoid anxiety about scanners and such. Good luck!
cheers,
Sam

You have also Revelab, VM Foto and I think Carmencita Lab has also a new lab in Barcelona.
