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.

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.

The staff is very helpful and turns around your prints very quickly. They have an easy-to-use system where you simply email them your files. Prints can be very expensive, however, especially if you're looking for a nonstandard set of dimensions.

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.

This store has multiple photo booths and they provide you with lots of props to take photos!…read moreThey have lots of options for the photo frame, photo dimensions, and layout. They also have a few creative photo booth rooms like the elevator room or the prison cell. It works just like a regular photo booth! They also have a station to decorate your photos after with markers or stickers. They ran out of a lot of stickers when we went so we didn't decorate ours. But I loved these photo booths because they had lots of filter options, frame options, beauty filter!!, and they allow you to edit or move your photos around before you print them. Definitely good value !

An innovative way to get a personalized keepsake while in Boston! This is a store where you get to…read morestep into a photo booth room and take photos with your friends or family! When you enter, you're greeted by the friendly staff however there weren't any clear instructions so it was a little chaotic. You first choose props to wear, if you want them, but everyone wears them so it seemed unsanitary. Then you choose a room, there's about 5 or 6 rooms with different color wall backgrounds. There's also one towards the back of the place with a higher angled camera near the elevator, this one seemed very popular. Once you enter the private room you begin the photo booth. You choose what layout style you want your photos, the basic and most popular package is 4 photos and two strips which costs $8. When you take your photos, it is timed, so it's a little rushed. Once you finish, you choose the border for your strips. At the end, your photos are printed and a QR code comes up with access to both a live and still digital copy. Few things to note that I wish I knew beforehand. Each room offers different borders. There are some Boston frames but only for the pink and blue rooms. Second, the rooms are tiny, so fitting 4 people was a challenge. Try to get all four faces as close to the camera as possible, because if not, your friends in the back will be out of focus. It only opened in September so it's obvious it's still a work in progress through the disorganization. The card readers are finicky and there's no real organization. It's very busy on weekends so be prepared to wait if you want a specific background. I'm hoping with time these minor things get sorted out. A cool thing they offer is a station where you can get a plastic sleeve for your photos and decorate your prints with stickers. This is free of charge! Despite it all, I would definitely come back here as I love this concept and it's a great way to capture your memories.
