FAQs

Does CVS process film photos? ›

CVS Photo makes processing film simple. No matter what type of film requires developing, you can bring it to your local CVS Photo location for processing. Services include processing for 35mm film, disposable cameras, Advanced Photo System film, black and white film, 110 film and slide film.

All Walgreens stores with a photo lab can accept your 35mm film. Select stores with a photo lab can also accept APS (Advanced Photo System), 110 film, 127 film, negatives, or a disposable/single-use camera. Walgreens stores that can accept the rolls/negatives will use an outside service to fulfill the orders.

Where to get film developed the cheapest is almost always a question any film enthusiast has asked before. Walmart is definitely one of the cheaper options, but CVS and Target are other stores worth considering as well. If accessible in your area, these two are the go-to for cheap film developing.

Disposable camera photos are typically ready for pick up within 7-10 days. All other types of film are usually ready in approximately 3 weeks. Whatever type of film you may have, head to your local CVS to get your photos printed and look back on those special moments in no time!

They also develop formats that other retail stores won't. In that sense, it's good. However, CVS is not the best choice if you're looking for professional results or high-quality prints and scans. Most importantly, CVS is not the place to go if you want to hold on to your negatives.

Yes, 35mm can still be developed- through magical chemical processes using processing machines, or in some cases by hand in developing tanks we can still enjoy the thrills of film photography! You need to find a photo lab or business that offers 'film developing' or 'film processing' with the option of 35mm film.

In visiting our local Costco, we discovered that they're no longer developing film.

Can I get my film developed at Walmart? ›

If you've ever wondered, “Does Walmart develop film?” the answer is yes.

From only ^$13. Film Developing for 35mm, 110, 120, C-41 Color Negative, E-6 Slide and True Black & White.

Color films 10 to 20 years beyond their process-before date aren't too likely to have good quality color but the effect can be interesting and perhaps “artistic”. It is rare to have a film more than 30 years old render decent color by accelerating or processing direct to color.

As of 2022, CVS performs 35mm film and disposable camera development in shops with a photo center. The printing takes around 7 to 10 business days to complete and costs about $12 for every 12 exposures. Additionally, CVS processes 110mm and black-and-white film.

Theres two reasons for that. The first is having captured the market and become the darling of colour films Fuji upped the price back in the 'used to be'. It became quite an expensive film in time – more expensive that Kodak in the late 1980s. The second reason is today the eBay scalpers are hard at work.
