Photo Developing
You can leave film to be developed at many discount and drug stores at reasonable prices and get your film back in a few days. Some stores offer 24 hour service at no extra charge. Other photo stores advertise “One Hour” developing. You'll pay twice as much for this service. The best buys in photo developing come from mail order laboratories, which often will give you two of each print for a small extra charge, though you'll have to wait up to two weeks for your photos. So the quicker you want your photos, the more you pay. All these establishments sell films and photo accessories. Camera stores usually send film to the same outside labs the drug stores do, and you'll pay more. Shop around.
With the advent of digital photography, many people no longer have photographs printed, or
opt to print them themselves. Many of the outlets that previously developed photographs now
run services that make it easy to have quality digital photographs printed. Internet services
also offer these services.
