HOW IT WORKS

Two ways in. One lab.

Every roll is developed and scanned in-house on Noritsu equipment at 1703 Polk St. The only difference is how it gets to us.

Mail in

  1. Order online — pick scan size, pay once, get an order number.

  2. Put your rolls in a zip-top bag. Write the order number, your name, and email on it.

  3. Ship with any carrier to the address in your confirmation email.

  4. We email you when your scans are ready — within 2–3 days of arrival.

Scans only. Negatives are not returned; nothing is mailed back.

Drop off in SF

  1. Order on your phone — scan the QR on the box or go to grainstudiosfilm.com/drop.

  2. Write the order number, your name, and email on an envelope. Film inside.

  3. Drop it in the box at 1703 Polk St, any time.

  4. Scans emailed in 2–3 days. Negatives and prints picked up during session hours.

Negatives back and 4x6 print sets available. Held two weeks for pickup.

TURNAROUND
