Hi
Can anyone tell me where I can get a 35mm film developed and put onto CD only? I don't want to pay for prints.
Thank you.

My local Klick Photopoint does this, CD of jpeg's and no prints. I am not sure of the price but I am sure that it would not be that expensive.0

Tesco do this at their in store photo centres.
They dont do it in 1hr processing, it takes about a week.
I have been charged various amounts between 97p-£2.90 but either way not expensive0 -
Just to point out that the jpeg images aren't usually as good quality as you might think.
You won't be able to print them as good as from the film.Never buy a stupid dwarf -
Its not big and its not clever.0 -
Thank you Shaun_d123, I think I'll give them a go...
And thanks Viz (great userid!) it was a cra**y underwater throw away so not too bothered about that.:think: Can anyone explain to me how to put a signature here? :think:

Yep they will definetly put an underwater disposable one onto CD for you as that is the same as I took.
Think it is £2.97 to be put onto CD if you dont get any prints done from the camera but if you do get prints done from the camera its 97p.
However each time I have had it done they have only charged me 97p. Prints are nothing spectacular but cheaper than getting printed

If you're going to do it regularly, it may be worth investing in a film scanner. When I started in photography I was using a film SLR camera. I initially bought a flatbed scanner to use with the computer (for general scanning) but with the addition of a negative scanner adaptor to scan film negatives.
When I was shooting lots of rolls of films, I invested in a dedicated film scanner.
I used to take the film to Tesco and as for "development only, no prints". A lot of the time they did it while I waited (10 mins max) and charged about £1 per roll of film. I'd then scan them myself into the computer.
The dedicated film scanner could scan the negative at very large resolutions to give huge prints. The normal flatbed scanner with negative adaptor can also scan to excellent resolution for prints up to A3.0
