Better Quality Photos
Finally got my photos back from the lab. This time it’s done properly. The photo lab I went to today is this one:
Siren Colour Lab
Blk 960, Jurong West St. 92
#01-204, Singapore 640961
Highly recommended for NTU students who still use film and want to develop photos. It’s cheap too, if I were to send a roll of film for developing and scanning into a CD, it would have costed me $7 ($2 for developing, $5 for scanning) which is MUCH cheaper than the freaking lab at Orchard charges.
Oh, so as a comparison, we’ll see how the two labs fare. We’ll use the same photo that I posted two days ago.
(Note: it may take some time to load the photo scanned by Siren Colour Lab as the file size is 556 KB, which is expected of a photo of that size. I don’t intend to edit the photo to show you the real, unedited products of the two labs.)
Dumb Ngee Ann City Fujifilm outlet ($11.90):
Siren Colour Lab ($7):
Yes, as usual you can click on the photos to enlarge them.
See the difference? Moral of the story: don’t always think that being in the city will guarantee a good service. Sometimes it’s the shop deep in the suburb which can give you a real good quality service.
PS: Yeah, I know my photographic skill is still not good yet. Mostly lack of time and high price of developing are the reasons that I no longer pursue this hobby as much as I did the last time. Perhaps if I get a digital SLR I may pursue this hobby again in the future.
