Couldn’t be happier
After forking over £16 for every roll i want developed to come back with average at best scans i went on the hunt for a place i could drop off to instead of ship.
Pricing is incredibly good, film scans look great, staff are lovely, and I got my scans back after only about 4 hours after paying for the 3-5 days option. Not sure if photo correction and rotation is an option but it’s such a minute issue it doesn’t matter for the price

Great service by Fei!
Fei was really helpful with a different sized passport photo - double checking the measurements to ensure I got the right size for my non-UK passport. She made the process super easy and quick - a great service provided!

Great service, nice team and good prices
One of go-to film labs in London! I’m getting most of my 35mm film developed and scanned here. Their prices for dev&scan are great! The results are lovely and you can get film for reasonable prices here as well. They also offer a bunch of other services and products. Fei and the rest of the team doing a great job! See you next time!
