This may be of interest from another forum I go on, Filmshooting.com:

Click on the link on the right to see a film made about the Swiss lab before it closed.

Interesting, although it's obviously cine film and not the 35mm we know and love. Quite a chemical set-up there, very large scale, certainly no mini-lab.

I wish there would be some kind of narration, though. However, I do understand the intent is not to educate or get technical.

Thanks.

The video shows movie film, but the lab in Switzerland also processed 35mm (and 126, and 828, and maybe even 120 when they were current).

It is similar to the lab in North Vancouver that I would visit regularly with my Dad when I was young.

K40 in Super 8 is still available from Wittner Kinotechnik in Germany. And Dwayne's will process it.

I don't do Super 8 myself but I'm shooting some K40 in both 16mm and regular/double 8mm.
