Digital Imaging Center

Do NOT get your film processed/​developed here. My negatives came back incredibly dirty. They didnt even to bother cutting the roll, they just put it in the film container and gave it back to me. Samy’s Camera on Sepulveda will process your film CLEANLY and cut it for less.

Pretty good spot. Quicker turn around time than Samys Camera for developing film. Small shop but efficient. Will be returning to develop more film here.

One week, I called to get a quote to make a photobook. The guy mentioned he could also do the service of putting it all together from scratch for a fee.
The following week, I went in to make it there from scratch. They said they couldn’t offer that service because they were busy right now. How lousy and pathetic. I left and definitely got a better experience elsewhere. What a waste of my time.

Amazing place to get film developed! I always get develop only and can attest this is the place to develop films in LA! Efficient and cheap, these guys know what they are doing. Super friendly staff, always helpful and motivated.

Great customer service! Very friendly, helpful, and nice!

My first great experience with this store was several years ago when I decided to transfer several hundred slides from the ’60’s into digital. I called around and compared prices and the price here was about half of what the other stores were charging. I now have all my precious photos organized on my computer and it was no work for me at all. The resolution of my digital prints is smaller than the other stores would have done but I am not planning on blowing them up into 8×10 or posters and they are crisp and clear on my computer screen and in the 4×6 prints I made. I appreciate the savings.
Recently I have been getting rid of all my VHS tapes. Many of them are of personal memories. Digital Imaging has transferred them to DVD, again at a reasonable price and with a 24 hour turnaround.
These guys have always taken good care of me and I appreciate them.

I had a large negative from the 1940s. I went to CVS, who no longer processes film. They told me to go to Costco, but there, I was told that they don’t process that large of negatives. They told me to go to Samy’s, who told me that they could scan it for $ 10, but it’d take 10 days.
Unilocal told me to go to Digital Imaging Center. Between 4pm on a Saturday and 3pm on the following Monday (this location isn’t open on Sundays), they scanned my picture, put it on a CD, and printed 4 (4×6) copies for less than $ 8.
I don’t know how their other services are, but for printing from an old negative, they were super fast, easy to deal with, well-​priced, and gave me a great product.

Great Service! Helpful and honest. Quick turn– around on my VHS — DVD transfer.

Five dollar minimum to print. Not only is it overpriced, but they require you to spend at least $ 5 to purchase anything. I thought that this was silly, and I think this needs to be posted somewhere where customers can see it before they submit their photos and BEFORE they get a receipt handed to them from the kiosk machine.
I called to make sure that I could print a photo off a USB and they said sure. I walk in and the man asks how he can help me and I let him know that I need to print one 4 by 6 picture and he directed me to the machine.
I do the whole process and get a receipt and I go up to him go pay. He looks at my receipt and with a smirk goes you need to spend at least $ 5. Sir, why didn’t you tell me this when I had asked you what machine to use?!
The only reason why I came here was because Rite Aid’s machine down the street wasn’t working. If I was a business owner, I would kindly let me customer know this policy and allow them to print this one time. But instead he allowed me to walk out and take my money with me. Will not be returning here again.
Also prints here for a 4 by 6 cost more than 50 cents each, you can go to Rite Aid and pay 29 cents for instant prints or 19 cents for next day.

When I got my photos back I was quite disappointed. They mishandled my film. I’m not too sad about it. It was old film because I couldn’t find a place to develop it. Even so I do expect better service. It is a bit pricey. Usually when a place messes up the film or you don’t get all your exposures they lower the price.
I will still go back because it’s the only place that develops film in my area. I guess you can only trust the printing if you are using digital.
I will be going there soon to develop my black and white film. Hopefully that will be a better experience.

At the last minute I decided to send out holiday cards. I was absolutely amazed by this place. I uploaded and formatted my photo online at 9am and my cards were done by NOON, three hours later! What? This is unheard of, I thought I was going to have to wait for days. Color and quality is good too.

They are cheap and fast! very friendly too! ;)

I called at 1pm to get a photo canvas — it was stretched and ready with friendly service by 5:30pm. On a Saturday. Great experience. It looks good. I would recommend.

I just had a horrible experience with Digital Imaging Center in Culver City, thought it’s share worthy. I’ve recently moved to LA and was looking for a place to develop my holga photos. Turns out, this is the closest film processing center. After leaving my photos, and the guy had no idea what a Holga is or how to even open it, I was told to come pick them up at 1 pm. I called around 1:30 to ask if they were developed and if so, how many were actually showing since sometimes, light leaks or over exposure might cause totally white photos in Holga. The guy I was on the phone was overly rude, said he doesn’t know, just come and see for yourself and I told him that depending on how many are showing, I’ll either get prints or not. After I said that, he said «I’m busy» then hung up. Way to go !
Then after a while, I called again and this time, I was told the whole film was over exposed. It had light leaks which it should, but they couldn’t print or scan them like this. They made some excuses about how their machine only prints if there actually is enough exposure. All in all, horrible experience. Wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
