What customers say
I almost never write reviews, but its absolutely necessary that I write one for Strap Film Lab. Their turnaround time is unbelievably fast and great quality. I haven’t had a single issue getting my photos back. What really makes them stand out is their incredibly kind and cheerful demeanor.
Run. Do not walk, to Strap. Let’s be honest, in the world of developing, there a good labs and there are bad ones. Strap is a great one. Not only do they have the best people behind the counter (artists themselves who care about your work) but some of the fastest turnarounds I know.
Excellent experience. High quality and very customer friendly. We found an undeveloped roll of film from the early 90s and a bunch of negatives ranging from the early 50s - 80s.
Best place to get your film developed locally in az, by far the fastest turn around time. I live about a hour away and I’d rather drive than ship my film anywhere else. Most of the time if you drop your film off in the AM or early afternoon you'll have your scans same day!
