What customers say
Recently I started doing 35mm film as part of my photography hobby, and I'm glad I found this place to process my film. They are helpful and friendly, and they usually get my film ready pretty quickly. I'm pretty sure this will be the only place I'll go to for processing.
Have brought several rolls of film here. Love the quick turn around and the quality of my photos. The staff is also very helpful every time. This is my go-to place to get filmed developed. However I have never had prints done, only scans.
I recently used PJ’s Camera to convert my old VHS family movies into USBs, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! The process was fast, with a turnaround time that exceeded my expectations.
This is my new place to develop my film! Everyone was friendly and helpful. The turn around time for getting my film back was fast as well. I only put 4 starts because of their hours. It is always difficult for me to drop off my film + pick it up seeing as I work a 7a-5p job.
