So I’ve been going to retro photo for a while. Mike always has something special I don’t need but some how I need it now. 🤔 We like to play the game “Name that part” I’m 50/50 with the wins. But if you needed something like a Pentax K1000 prism “New” he has it. Also the screw that snapped. Reverse threading lol. Film processing and good crew handling your film at a great price.

Been going here for years but the quality of the scans has really deteriorated. Their machine is uncalibrated. The colors look muddy and awful. You can't even save it with color correction. Staff is full of excuses with nothing to make it right. Had to double pay to send to a lab that was ontop of their stuff. Don't make the same mistake. Their cheap prices deliver cheap results. Absolutely not worth it.

Theres lots of cameras and the owner was very helpful on ones I asked him about. Pricing is also really fair (:

Been coming here for years, great place, they now have practically every film available in 35mm in the U.S. besides Fuji’s imported slide films (Velvia 50, Provia 100), however you can buy (but not develop) ektachrome. Staff is great and friendly. They are always expanding services. HUGE selection of film cameras and gear. I know it might sound negative listing what they don’t carry, but pretty much everything else they do carry.
