35mm (135) Colour Film Developing C-41 Process (Develop Only)

What is “C41 Processing”
This is the standard film process for developing colour negative / print film.
Regardless of make or speed, they all go through this totally standardised process. You will find this is the only process normally handled in house by the likes of the high street processors such Boots, Snappy Snaps etc. There are three black and white films on the market which are designed to process C41 but yield a monochrome image (Ilford XP2, Kodak BW400CN & Fuji Neopan 400CN). Other than these all other C41 process films are colour. Some examples include: Fuji Superia; Kodak Gold; Kodak Ultra; Fuji Pro 400H; Kodak Portra; Kodak Ektar (this is not an exhaustive list and over the years there have been thousands of different C41 films). Once processed these films appear as a negative and have an orange cast in colour. This is a special orange mask which makes them much easier to print – it’s all extrememly clever. Films are normally marked “C41” if intended for this process.
