Question Developing Digital Photos

I believe this is a FAQ...

I would like to know where to develop digital pictures at a better price in North/Central area?

Also what abt the rest of singapore.. thinking of coming up with a common list for people to see if they have such questions next time.. so help appreciated

Last time i developed at Bishan J8, it didn't have handling charge.. and 35c per 4R
2nd time i went it was 5 bucks handling charge, 35c still.. then 5R 1.50 and 8R 4.80

MS Colour in AMK is $3 handling, 40c 4R, 1.5 5R and 3bucks 8R.. cheapest so far

anymore better places?

what abt the east/west/central location

thanks

I suggest you search through consumer corner, this has been discuss many times...

and the prices you printed are definitely not the cheapest.

I've used both. Personally I prefer to send mine to a good lab. The so-called "pro photo" papers that I've used so far fade and discolor, whatever HP/Epson/Canon inkjets so far. Call me somewhat biased against them.


As for "better" images, I believe you will find the best images printed on a Fuji Frontier. Go to FDI labs lor. That's what I do.

SK..... is that really u?

I dont use "pro photo" papers. The quality cant match with photographic paper especially photos printed on Fuji Frontier machine.

U can try at KTDI. They give super quality print and of cos reasonable price.

yeah right.

Anyway Frontier is indeed very good. But you have to take note that Fuji lab must be FDI lab not ordinary FIP, cuz FDI then have Frontier for digital printing.
