[Leica] B&W Processing Turnaround, Providers

[len-1 at comcast.net (Leonard Taupier)]

John,

Use the film that GeeBee uses. The BW400 CN film. It gets developed  
in the same chemicals as color prints. You might even get 1 hour  
service. You can have them develop the negatives only for about $2  
and scan and print your own if you like.
