That sounds like a good deal. It is cheaper than Tescos when you add the fuel on as I don't normally shop there
The Tesco store at Leyland is still doing film developing and scanning. Current price is 99p for developing and £1.98 for scanning including an index print so £2.97
The post office might have you by the short and curlies as they have changed the rules for thickness of posts...I was going to send some 120 film in a jiffy bag and they were going to charge me £1.22..dunno if a 35mm cassette beats their thickness rule.
Hi,
I'm Nigel from Photo Express in Hull. I have registered in response to a request from Richard after he called us to inquire about having films developed and either printed or scanned to CD. You can find us at www.photo-express.co.uk and I have agreed with Richard that any TP members can have a 50p per film discount on any orders sent to us as long as you include your user name (although bank charges mean we must keep our minimum order charge at £4.50). We are a small business and therefore offer a personal service. We are in our 21st year and I am pleased to be on first name terms with many customers I have never met! If there are any questions you are welcome to e-mail me direct at nigel.edwards@photo-express.co.uk . I will try and keep in touch with this thread and hope that we can help.
***I always get prints***
erm and how many do you throw away? Maybe be better to find a good supermarket to dev and scan to a CD, correct any faults, spots or cropping on your selected shots then instead of mickey mouse prints of 6X4" or 5X7" (which many people get), send the selected jpg files off for a 10X12 print @ 34p each.

I have found that in essence quality depends on the staff in the store operatating the machine. it often varys from shift to shift and store to store
Does anyone know roughly how much it cost for the film to be processed and scanned (with or without prints, preferably without TBH) from somewhere like Boots?
While I'm just knocking off a few rolls of film for fun, if it's cheaper, I'd rather just go somewhere convenient, then go to a lab when I'm using film properly and not just messing around, getting the hang of things.
Ahh, for that price I may as well go to the local pro lab TBH.
Thanks

Do they sell cheap digital cameras in the same area as the minilab? Could be a marketing ploy - look at the crepe prints from your film camera, and think yeuk... and decide it's time you had a proper camera, you know, one of those digital ones, like that one... ooohhh - and it's only same as getting 5 films done.... sold - one cheapo digital camera. :shrug:
Just had my first set back from Photo Express really pleased with quality and the turn around time
that's the one we as a TP have a deal ? sounds good. will try to send them couple after I have a shoot. what's the resolution you got ? could you share some pics ?
Not suire about the resolution but when I saved them as tiff files they are 17meg in size,in the process of uploading to Flickr so I will be posting some soon
