16mm film development and scan in Zurich

Hi all,

A friend and I will be shooting a short project (30–60 seconds) near Zurich in August on 16mm film using my Beaulieu R16 camera. The project came together quite recently, so I am currently looking for the best option for high-quality film development and scanning - and probably for film stock as well. I already reached out to the Cinegrell and The Film Lab teams, but I wanted to ask for suggestions here as well. Do you have any recommendations?

Also, Berlin would be an option since one of the crew members will be traveling between the two cities, but the closer and faster the process, the better. (I’m also a bit concerned about airport X-ray scanners.)

One more thing: I will only be getting my Beaulieu R16 next week and haven’t had the chance to test it yet. Since the shoot is approaching quickly, I would also like to ask whether you know of any maintenance or repair services for this camera model in case any issues arise. (I’m definitely going to buy a new battery pack from Ausgeknipst before the shoot.)

Thank you so much for your help!!
