It’s a pretty good little store but the high resolution film developing is not good. Very low resolution and poor developing and this is the most expensive place to get your film developed in Los Angeles. And they take 2-3 days to give you the film everyone else is next day.

Great place, but one terrible website, it's like it's owners are stuck in the 80's I had to buy a new camera from an out of town outfit and little did I know Tuttle Cameras had it in stock they lost out on a $4k deal. Get it together guys, as it looks like now you only carry used cameras and equipment.
