Can I mail in my film from interstate?
Absolutely. We accept mail-in orders from anywhere in Australia. Visit our mail-in guide for full instructions on how to safely package and send your film.
Do you develop E-6 slide film?
Yes — Irohas Photo operates Australia's only E-6 Noritsu roller-transport processing machine. This means true lab-quality E-6 development. Turnaround is 3 business days for E-6 at our Melbourne lab.
What is ECN-2 film and do you process it?
ECN-2 is the chemical process used for cinema/movie film stocks like Kodak Vision 3. It requires a specialist process different from standard C-41. We process ECN-2 film at $25 dev+scan or $15 dev only, with a 3 business day turnaround.

Yes. Push and pull processing is available for $5 per stop on top of the standard developing price. Just let us know at drop-off or in your mail-in note how many stops you'd like pushed or pulled.
Do you develop disposable cameras?
Yes — disposable camera film is developed using the standard C-41 process. Just bring in your disposable camera and we'll extract and develop the film. Browse our disposable camera collection if you need a camera too.

After processing, you'll receive a digital download link via email. Files are delivered as high-quality JPEGs. You can also opt to have your original negatives returned in a protective sleeve.
