Developed 7 rolls in less than 48 hours from drop off. Great service, efficient and super quick turn around. The employees are really kind and professional. I gladly spend my money here and buy film as well. It is so worth it to get your film developed here. They do it all!!
Great development shop. Very fast, and good enough quality for most uses. Have developed e6, c41, and b&W here and would recommend for all.
Sam is absolutely the nicest person ever. I’m very new to photography literally just started today and he was able to help me recover my new film that I rewound by accident, he explained to me the different mechanisms on the richo camera I’m currently using, and even adjusted this other camera I’m using by switching…
I’m a professional photographer and use Luster for all my film dev/scan needs except for the occasional hand print. They have been reliable for years and are so so quick with beautiful colours too. No frills, no fuss.
