Went to the store in Kenmore Sq., Boston, to buy an action camera. The staff didn't seem to know…read moremuch about the product I was interested in and they even sold me the wrong memory card, which I had to return the next day. It's better to buy through Amazon since it's less expensive. I would be willing to spend more to support a local shop and/or to get technical support, but Hunt's is a chain and their staff just looks up any questions you have on Google, so there is no benefit with buying in person.

Apparently they digitize the photos and can email it to you so it makes it easy to receive them and you don't necessarily have to go back to the store unless you want the negatives. Store has lots of nice cameras and other related equipment. Good to know this store exists as I had no idea they were here!

Pretty new to film photography and I've only ever had three rolls developed. In the last two rolls,…read moreevery other picture had an issue where half of the picture was fine and the other half was too dark. Because of that I was convinced my camera had a systemic problem. Took a chance on Colortek for my next roll and it was 100% the right decision. It took about a week to develop and the quality is just fantastic, each picture came out perfectly and resolved any doubt I had about my camera actually having an issue. Will definitely be coming back.

Ive avoided this place since my college days because I didn't have ten million dollars for their…read moreservices. It's been eleven years, and I work nearby now, so I decided to bring a roll of e-100 over to them for processing only. The last time I was in there was 2015, according to the records there. They rang me up for processing and said "That'll be $17" Odd...I couldnt recall what my usual place offers, Lumentation, so I gave them a call. They charge $7. When I politely said to the older woman working there, "Not trying to be a jerk, just wanna let you know Lumentation charges $7. Why do you charge $17". She scoffs. "Well, I send it out to someone who does it for REAL." Super helpful, sis. I was pleased with Lumentation's results the last time I went, so I will just take the hike over there again. You guys can delete my account from your system...it's been 11 years since I gave you my business, and I don't plan on ending that streak.

Over multiple purchases, he's helped me pick out a range of cameras and lenses (both new and used), and every recommendation has been spot-on. What I appreciate most is his advice. As I've gotten deeper into sports and portrait photography, Brad has taken the time to explain tradeoffs, suggest practical setups, and make sure I understood why a certain lens/body made sense for what I'm shooting. No pressure, just genuinely helpful guidance from someone who knows his craft. Highly recommend asking for Brad if you're shopping at the Melrose location.

Their developing work is as good as ever, but the quality of their scans has been significantly…read morereduced. I first noticed with my last batch that the 135 scans they did, supposedly at "full resolution" were noticeably pixelated, with jagged edges visible at 100%. I was surprised, since this problem was not present the scans this same lab had done for me in years past. I called and they agreed to re-scan them on a different machine, which ended up producing scans of about 1/4 the resolution of the original job. I finally talked to the manager of the lab who admitted that they deliberately reduced the quality of the scanner's outputs, so even though they bought a machine that can do impressive 30MP files, they no longer collect that much data off the film. They refunded me, but refused to change the settings on their machine. So even though you're still paying the full cost for "high res" scans, you're getting significantly less quality now. This isn't just lazy, it's bad business practice. Their lab work is fine, but if you're looking for quality scans, look elsewhere. Their results are garbage, and they don't even care.
