120 developing in Los Angeles: common questions

How much does 120 developing cost in Los Angeles?
Medium format runs a little above 35mm: about $16–26 to develop and scan a roll of 120 color, a few dollars more for black and white, and similar for E-6 slide. Pricing is national in shape — confirm with the lab.
Why do fewer labs offer 120?
120 is wider than 35mm and has to be loaded and scanned differently, so a lab needs the right equipment. The ones that do offer it are set up for medium format and usually scan it at higher resolution to make the most of the larger negative.
Will I get my 120 negatives back cut and sleeved?
A good lab returns 120 negatives cut into strips and sleeved in medium-format pages. If your negatives matter to you, ask how they cut and sleeve before you drop the roll off.
