I used to get all my E6 processing done by Fuji Labs. If anybody knows about E6 processing, it should be them.

There seems to be good feedback on Peak Imaging of Sheffield. I think there was a thread on this quite recently.

Yes, but they changed their mounts - the new ones are embossed FUJIFILM exactly where I want to write the description - and they now return processed slides in a nasty unfileable plastic sleeve instead of the nice green & white box they used to use.

I've been using dLab7 recently but am not satisfied with variable density of the results, they're usually a bit dark but not always the same amount (an issue which has affected films which have been exposed in three different cameras, so it's not a metering problem).

Peak have never let me down and I'll be switching back to them, even if they are more expensive.

I'd thoroughly recommend Peak Imaging. I've used them for years, quick and never a problem. I've always had single sheets processed, or if smaller formats, cut into strips for scanning, so I can't comment on their mounts.

Thing is they don't do 5x4. Does anyone know someone who does?

Fuji Labs are not owned by Fuji, they are a contractor.

Digital Lab in newcastle is where me and my friends all go to get ours developed and my friend shoots a lot of 5X4 Transparency and it's always great quality processing, however I'm not sure about mail order.

Next time I'm in i shall find out.:)
