I'm guessing that was for me? If so, it was a decent experience. I didn't develop myself though, I bought in a few years ago when there was only the option to send it back to Germany for ECN-2 development. It took me that long to go through them! Not sure I'd do it again, unless I had a very specific project in mind, due to expense & shipping. 250D is definitely my fave of the bunch, I'm looking forward to trying the new Cinestill 400D to see how it fares.
Thanks. I really like that image. The atmosphere and the sharpness gives me the feeling of being there.

Thank you. I was looking for this, but forgot who was offering it. I will give it a shot.
Sure, and please let us know how it turned out.
I may try them too.
As an experiment I used one of the labs that processes Vision 3 in C-41. I generally liked the results (colors and tones ) but on some frames on each roll there were artifacts. Due to that I won't use them again.

Do you bulk roll your own Vision 3?
No, after reading about risks with bulk loading and also initial up-front spendings before getting into unknown territory I figured I would purchase ready to use products with both 50D and 250D versions of film (under $10 per roll). I am glad that I did.
While it is great to have options like 250D, but the smaller the format the less granier film I prefer. If I find a reliable lab for Vision 3 development I will use up all my remaining rolls of that film and then decide whether it is worth bothering with more.
For now Ektar 100 is my color negative film of choice in 135 due to resolution and reliable hassle-free development option in pro labs.

Understood. I have strayed away from bulk loading myself as well, seems like a bit of hassle. I might try to procure some ECN-2 250D down the road, and either develop myself or try the lab you left the link for.
My next pic is a sign that was left behind after a Chinese Restaurant was demolished up Island on the highway. I meant to stop to take a photo of it for years.... I finally did, and as it would happen the sign was taken down a few weeks later.
