Picked up a stack of (100) photos from the local pharmacist on Anzac Parade. the photo processing company is called QFL (in red).
Good things:
- 15c each
- They are printed on Kodak paper.
- Leave the digital media with them, and 3 days later the photos arrive — minimal fuss.
Things to note:
- No manual control as to how the photos are printed (e.g. 2 photos were slightly off-centre, for one photo I would’ve liked to fiddle with the exposure)
- Prints EVERYTHING on that media — no selection allowed.
- Digital prints still lack certain clarity and sometimes not-so-natural skintones — but thats not their fault.
To me, 15c is still a worthwhile bargain despite some of these shorcomings…
Nice. I am not really a “printing person” and I am happy to look at digital photos on computers, but I know many would prefer holding an actual album. 15 cents is probably the absolute lowest these days, but this one is much closer to home.
Which pharmacist is this?
ah, forgot to mention, there is a minimum of 50 photos per processing.
the one i went to is inbetween GPK and IGA on Anzac – closer to IGA’s end.
but a lot of pharmacies use QFL processing, so it should be fairly popular (i saw one in Randwick too).
