What customers say
Nice people, friendly shop, competitive prices, great personal service! They process film and are a hub for the photo community! They also have a good selection of used gear, also with competitive prices. Here's an image I took that Dot Dotson's processed from film I bought there.
Dot Dotson’s is excellent! Quick and well-done film processing and great customer service. I brought in my favorite film camera that had a busted mirror and they said it’d be $35 to get it looked at plus the price of parts... but they had a brand-new in the box version of said camera for $35 as well.
Best place in town to get film developed and photos printed. They have a great attention to detail and even re-printed one of my large prints due to an error, and sprayed all my prints with protectant. They also have a great selection of film cameras for sale. Support these folks!
