Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I don't know about Costco, but Walmart won't process it!. They'll have to send it out to a professional lab to get it developed!.

Try looking online for a photo lab!. There are a lot of labs that will develop 120 film, but you'll just have to look!. Do a search on Google!. One place I can recommend is Dwayne's Photo in Parsons, Kansas!. They will develop all kinds of different films, including 120!. They even sell and develop 8mm and 16mm movie film!.

also, try looking at Freestyle Photo Supplies in California!. I don't know if they develop film, but they have links to several different labs you can try!. Freestyle also sells a ton of different films and other traditional photography supplies!.

The other thing is that if you ever decide you want to try black and white film, you should learn to develop it yourself!. It's really not that hard at all!. Color film is a lot harder to develop yourself, so you should send that to a lab!. But you can easily develop B&W film yourself at home!. You can buy all the supplies and chemicals from any good camera shop or you can also order them online!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm afraid not!.!.!.especially if you are looking for E6 processing!. You will need to find a professional photo lab such as:

or someplace more local if you don't like sending your rolls over the mail!. Expensive!. Google "E6 processing" and your zip code!.!.!.even if you don't need E6 processing, you will find a lab that can process your 120 film!.

Franchises like Ritz and Fox (if still around) can probably process your 120 film!.

Perki is right!. If you are not processing slide 120, no need to do a search on E6!.!.!.E6 labs are harder to find!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

My daughter shoots with that film, and no, Walgreens or Costco can't take it!. Look for a professional lab in your area or you can mail it online to one!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes WalMart does and does a fine job and are inexpensive they have to send them out so it may take a couple of weeks ~I have often used them ~~ Www@QuestionHome@Com

No they don't, but the poster is incorrect about E-6!.!.!.that is the process for slide film!.!.!.if you are not doing slides, ignore him!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No they don't!.
