Try Peak Imaging Paul - they are excellent and can provide both the processing and the scanning services you are looking for.

Paul - handy hint. Watch the back of the camera. I bought one last year and just as I reached the end of the first role of film I came a cropper when the back pinged open on the gentlest of touches.

Don't confuse the Lubitel 2 with Lomo.

Lubitel 2 was a seriously good TLR which, although only costing about £5 new, could match much more expensive TLRs for image quality. In a sense Lubitel was to Rollei what the Zenit-B was to Canon. Cheaper, (much) less robustly constructed, but super image quality.

Left Forum must be older than me ............ my Lubitel cost me £13 in the late 70s (and that included a leather case and cable release).
I always taped the back shut 'just in case' - I had heard about possible light leakage problems.
It is still sitting upstairs - and yes, it gave some really good results.

It is a Lomo, it always has been.

Last time I used one was about 30 years ago, one I had borrowed and used it for the large group photo`s at a wedding, yes closed down a few stops its fine.
