What customers say
Easily one of the best photo labs/ camera shop/ analog photography store front in Southern California. Frank’s inventory on cameras and film stocks out ranks any other storefront in LA County and surrounding areas.
One of the best film shops in LA! From the variety of film, knowledgeable staff and the quality of scans. You just can’t compare to any other shop. Turn around time is quick and if you ask for a rush they do the best they can and often accommodate for you. They also sell cameras that are tested and in great condition.
Love love love this place ! The prices are outstanding and the service is unforgettable. The turn around time for development and film scans is relatively quick and the people who work here are super friendly. My scans weren’t popping up on my flash drive and I was able to get the issue fixed the same day.
absolutely love this shop. been in here multiple times in the past year and had nothing but good service. the dev is fast and the scanning is great quality. super appreciative of this small business for being able to provide standard prices even with the difficulty of rising overhead cost.
