I've recently unearthed a new, still-in-box, Olympus Pen EE-3 which I bought decades ago and never used. Similarly, my Pentax Auto 110 has been unused for five years or more. Now may be time to run a film through each one, before deciding whether to keep, or sell.
Google reveals a few 'labs' that handle half frame and 110, but they are unfamiliar to me. So, does anyone have recent experience of film (colour) dev & scan services please?

110 is different but half-frame dev only should be the same as full frame. But scan is different, not only are there two frames for every one but the inter-frame gaps are smaller, that means (in my experience) the strips need to pass through the scanner twice. I'm not sure what commercial labs would make of this.
If I had an unused Pen EE-3 I think I'd leave it in the box, the value to collectors is much greater that way.

I used half frame trannies in the 60's/70's and these came back in single frame mounted in standard 35mm mounts. I had never thought of scanning them but i will give them a try. I would agree with beejaybee regarding the Olympus Pen.
