Development of the film
If you find a roll of the film today, you can use it without any problems and also have it developed. Once the film is fully exposed, it must be put into the C-41 developing process to develop it. This process is offered by most photo labs. It is standardized so that you always get the same result regardless of the lab. If you want, you can also develop the film yourself, provided you have the right chemistry. Once development is complete, you get the film strips with your own pictures.
The next step is usually either the digitization of the negatives or the conventional production of photographic prints. Many developing laboratories offer directly as a service the creation of prints in various sizes.
Digitizing
If you want to process the photos you took with the Kodak Bright Sun 100 in digital form, it is recommended to digitize the film strips with a scanner. Some photo labs also offer a scanning service for negatives. Alternatively, you can also purchase a scanner for personal use. The digitized images can then be shared on various platforms, including social media, or printed in other formats.
