Hi,

That's one of the options. The other way is to develop all at the lab of your choice, then pick a few and ask the other lab to reprint. This way, you can compare their print side by side. I'd say both are equally good, though I personally think Colour Lab's ever slightly better in terms of colour reproduction and tonality. Once you have found the lab you like, stick with it and make friends with the people there. For Colour Lab, that means the 2 guys at the basement.

Tip: If you consolidate a lot of orders, e.g. plus your friends, yours, etc for a total of more than $220, the membership is essentially free. What they do is deduct 10% off the total and use that to pay for the membership.

Sorry, never quite phrase it properly.

Suppose total cost is $250. If you apply for the card on the spot, they will deduct 10% straightaway. The balance is now $225. $20 for the card, so total cost to you is $245. Something like that, can't really remember. I got a bit confused too. :embrass:
