As the owner of a film lab, please please please don’t go to a CVS or Walgreens or Walmart. They will not give your film the treatment it deserves. Support a local/smaller lab that actually cares about your film and returns your negatives.

Also, Amazon is horrible for buying film, they’re normally overpriced and the storage conditions of film are not ideal. Film should be refrigerated before sale and Amazon definitely doesn’t do that.

Check out www.brooktreefilmlab.com if anyone is interested in more info!

You should not support spammers like this user.

I apologize for spamming, just trying to help people if I can. I’m just an avid film shooter myself and have had film ruined by drug stores in the past.

Yeah just checked your message history and it's full of this same kind of "helping"

You’re right, I try to offer advice if I can for film related things. But I also do share my lab quite a bit. I’m not a bot or anything though, and I do attempt to help the community whenever possible. I’m sorry if I offended you or anything, it is not my intention to be seen as a spammer or nuisance.

It's definitely an art/hobby thing these days, but there's a whole new wave of young people that seem to be fascinated by analogue cameras. Even Polaroid revivals are a thing with some. It's weird. :)
