Thanks, Igor - I'll look into mpix. Film development is definitely a
dying art.
The lab here in Kalamazoo lost their lease and the cost of moving their
processing equipment was prohibitive, especially since most of it cannot
be repaired anymore.
The owner of the lab diversified a few years ago and got into a
business that is less subject to changing technologies, so he will
likely come out OK - his pub is very popular.

Mark,
Ever since I've got a portion of somebody else's film (Kodak which was
very different even in appearance -- color -- from my Agfa) among my
developed film, - I basically stopped allowing mine to be processed
off site.
I just looked, and all the places I used to use no longer process the
film. (It looks like even Adorama stopped doing it.)
I was surprised, but it looks like Mpix.com still does the film.

I haven't used these, but seem to remember some people recommending them:

http://www.richardphotolab.com/
And you look at a few others:

The local pro lab closed its doors at the end of March so I am looking
for someplace to get C-41 film processed. Any recommendations for a
good lab?
I've heard of oldschoolphotolab.com and thedarkroom.com and based on
their websites either seem to be OK, though I was spoiled by the $4.50
per roll that the local place charged. $11 - $12 per roll seems to be
the going price online.
Kodak's website has a list of labs but it seems to be outdated -
checked into the websites of a handful of labs that could be
considered somewhat local (~200 mile radius) and none list actual
development as a service. I found one lab in the state that still
listed 120 film development as a service but when I emailed them they
told me it was discontinued recently.
Any suggestions?
Mark
