RGB still doing this, but all along in Kallang, before they moved the main lab from Balestier.

Ok, will forward this. Didn't know RGB still doing conventional printing? Thought they went all into scanning and digital printing? Anyway, thanks all for the help!

Honestly I not sure too, but since they are still doing E6 and C41, I guess so. Try Spectra, been using them for many many years before I shoot digital. Great people there.

RGB doesn't do manual prints anymore, not exactly commercially viable for them... even their prints from film are scanned digitally and then printed.
