How do I know what type of medium format film I have?
It will usually say on the film canister or box - either with a description or a short code for the relevant chemistry (C-41 colour, B&W standard, E6 slide etc)
You could also look up the film in our store by searching this page: All Film and checking its specifications.
The most common ones are colour C-41 which is the 'standard' colour negative film, and black and white (B&W).
If you have any concerns of questions about your 120 film developing then just drop a line to our live chat - or email lab@analoguewonderland.co.uk - and we'll quickly help you to the right choice.
How does the process work?
What are the scanning options?
We offer four resolution options with our Noritsu HS-1800 for 120 films:
| Scan type | Resolution | File Size | File Type |
| Standard | 2079 x 2048 pixels | 2-4 MB | JPEG |
| Premium | 4832 x 4760 pixels | 5+ MB | JPEG |
| Premium TIFF | 4832 x 4760 pixels | 50+ MB | TIFF |
Standard --> Best for personal websites / zines / projects!
Standard scans will be absolutely fine for posting on social media, personal websites, emailing to friends/family, and for making prints up to size A4
Premium --> Best for exhibits / large prints!
Premium scans are bigger and can also be used for posting on websites that can accept larger files (and won't simply compress that back down like Instagram or Facebook) - and they can make prints up to size A3
Premium TIFF --> Best for home editors and professional display!
Premium TIFF scans are much bigger file sizes, so prepare for a longer download time and more computer memory needed! The bonus of this is that they contain much more information within the same number of pixels as the Premium JPEG scans, so you can edit them yourself (in Photoshop or similar) and get much better results with strong edits.
TIFF is a 'lossless' format, so hasn't had any compression applied by software before arriving in your inbox. It also means that even though the pixel resolution is the same as the Premium scan, you should be able to print slightly larger without loss of meaningful detail - up to size A2.
What are the editing packages?
After we have scanned your 120 film negatives in our Fujifilm Frontier scanners there are a couple of steps to make your photos perfect. Our goal is always to present your scans just as you saw the shot through the viewfinder - but if you are comfortable with post-processing software then you may wish to go for the 'Basic' package to do the work yourself.
You can quickly compare the differences in the table below.
If you are looking to compare with other labs then please note that unless they have a post-scanning editing service then they will perform the actions 'Within the Scanner' but no further.
| Within the Scanner | Correct and Rotate | Professional Editing Package | |
| Colour Correction | Yes (Simple) | Yes (Advanced) | Yes (Advanced) |
| Contrast Correction | Yes (Simple) | Yes (Advanced) | Yes (Advanced) |
| Exposure Correction | Yes (Simple) | Yes (Advanced) | Yes (Advanced) |
| Consistency Across Roll | - | Yes | Yes |
| Rotation | - | Yes | Yes |
| Crop to Frame | - | Yes | Yes |
| Dust Removal | - | - | Yes |
| Spot Removal | - | - | Yes |
| Each Frame Optimised | - | - | Yes |
| Perfect for Printing | - | - | Yes |
How do I choose prints?
When the team have perfected your scans then you'll get an email inviting you to view them in the 'My Photos' area of your customer account.
You will be able to view and download all your images. You will also be able to select your favourites to print!
Simply click on all the images that you'd like to print, select size - quantity - finish, and add to your cart. See below for a simple illustration of the process.
The images will be sent back with your negatives. For more information head here

Great scans, minimal adjustment to the supplied jpeg.

Thank you for a great service.
These were from my first films taken on a vintage Rolleiflex TLR.
The results are mixed, but I've learnt a lot from my mistakes!
The scanning and subsequent printing process was excellent, I'm very pleased with the quality, I just need to work on my camera skills!
Thank you again, the next roll of film is the camera ready for action
Analogue Wonderland supplied some Rollei 200 as the first test of my well used YashicaMat 124g. I made a few mistakes, which the scans show quite clearly, and I have another roll loaded for a new project today, armed with a clearer view of where to improve. The service is quick and flexible, so I will take my negatives back to study them further, and use some prints to see how they hold up when enlarged! Similar to my 35mm journey, I need to open up by a stop, but focus is better on the 120. St. Mary’s Gate, Hornbeam Allee, and pleached Laburnum.
Developed in advertised time. Vintage camera so really pleased with results.
I sent in a roll of Kodak Gold in 120, and I was amazed with the results! This was the first roll I put through a Pentax 645N I got recently on eBay, with a 35mm F3.5. AW managed to pull every last available bit of detail from the highlights and shadows. Amazing results as always from AW. I will absolutely use them again!
