Hello fellow Zuiks,

It crosses my mind that as a group we need a fall-back position to take good 
care of exposed film when there is a danger that over-zealous airport people 
will insist on ruining your precious cargo.

What I suggest is that we build up a list of competent and trusted photo-
processors around the world and in states, that we can take our un-
developed film to for processing followed by postage home or pick-up prior to 
flying out..

I'll start the ball rolling by naming:-

1) Kodak Melbourne Australia for first-class processing of Kodachrome for 
Australian and New Zealand clients.

2) Viko in Auckland NZ (agents all over NZ) for good print developing and 
printing. (I have no recent experience, so others might care to comment)

3) PhotoCorp in Christchurch NZ for MF and larger E6 transparencies. 
Maybe they do 35mm as well. I send through my photolab.

What do you think?

This would be a good resource to have on the web. Maybe I could host it.

Brian
