Sometimes we temporarily run out of film. Don’t worry, we are actively working to restock it. We will ship your order once we receive new shipments of the film. Usually, backordered items are restocked after 1-2 weeks, though it can take longer.
No. Unfortunately, the process of rolling medium format rolls is a lot more difficult than rolling 35mm film. With the lack of easy-to-use equipment, medium format film is currently not expected to be added to the store.
Analog Amsterdam receives fresh film from a Kodak distributor almost every month. Motion picture film does not have an expiration date, but it is recommended to store the film cool and dry and to process it within two years of purchase. For non-Kodak films, please check the product page.
Orders shipped to addresses outside of the Netherlands can best be tracked through the website of the national postal carrier, such as La Poste or Poste Italiane, for the most accurate information. Has the tracking status not been updated for over a week? Very rarely do parcels get lost. In most cases, the parcel is slightly delayed.
The Analog Amsterdam logo is based on the flag of Amsterdam, dubbed the most badass city flag in the world.
Orders are usually shipped once a week, on Fridays. A large number of orders might push your order to the following week. For more information, check this page.
All black-and-white stocks in this store can be processed at home or in labs, unless stated otherwise. Virtually any lab will develop C41 rolls. Colour reversal films can be developed as E-6 at most labs. Vision3 films require special processing (ECN-2). Please check out this page for a list of labs around the world that can process ECN-2 films.
The goal of Analog Amsterdam is to keep film affordable. Motion picture film is relatively cheap, and small profit margins keep prices down. That is why Analog Amsterdam rolls are much cheaper than other vendors selling identical films, such as the Film Photography Project and Reflx Lab.
Our films are not DX-coded. Most photographers don’t need DX-coding, and adding it to every roll would only increase the price. Instead, you can purchase our DX code stickers, or create your own if preferred.
