Where to get film developed

[cambsno]

Starting to dabble in film photography with my Nikon FE. Got my 1st film developed with Ilford (use Ilford film) and while the processing was fine, there is no option (that i could see) for matt prints and i am not a fan of gloss.

Looking for somewhere that does matt and i guess are specialists in film. Am not looking to take to Tesco/Asda as too hit and miss for my liking and my local one is shocking for digital. Use DSCL for most prints but open to ideas???

the non-gloss finish in Ilford parlance is "Pearl"

you could try CC imaging in leeds, they seem to be good, you can always ask for matt prints and see if they do them

So not the same as pearl from dscl? Oh, thought it strange they don't do Matt, so assuming pearl is Matt, nice and confusing.

It's not actually matt - as in printed onto art paper, it's a lustre finish, but it's just right for mounting behind glass, where a full gloss shot just turns into a mirror on the dark bits.
