The best film labs in Idaho
2 shortlisted from 2 reviewed developers in Idaho — film labs, camera stores that develop and community darkrooms, each labelled for what it actually is.
How this ranking works
- Score = rating × log₁₀(review count). A 5.0 from nine people does not outrank a 4.7 from nine hundred, but one huge lab can't bury everyone either.
- 25 reviews minimum. Below that a rating is noise.
- One entry per chain. Multi-location labs get a single slot, so the list stays a list of businesses rather than of branches.
- Museums and attractions are excluded — this is a directory of places you can actually hand a roll of film to.
- Nothing is paid. No business can buy a position here, and quotes are pulled verbatim from public customer reviews.

Terrific. As a visual artist it is important to have my work professionally scanned. Roots is the place. Nearly impossible to tell the scanned copies from my original. There work is remarkable…
#2 The Molina's Film Lab

Picture quality was sooo much better than Walmart and I got to deal with a real person instead of a chat bot. All my future pictures will be taken here to develop and enlarge.
