Superb service

As always, the service at Lensfayre was fantastic from start to finish. Great communication throughout and advice was very helpful and gratefully received. The prints were ready so quickly, too. Thank you, Team Lensfayre!

A great job scanning slides

Lens Fayre did a great job scanning a batch of Kodachrome slides from the 70s-80s to digital for me. Turnaround within a week, which was not important, as I've waited almost 50 years. Now I have an digital archive of that work.

It was super easy to hand-in a disposable camera to be developed. The JPEGs were sent directly to my email. The picture quality is great. Will be using their service again!

The best place in notts for film photographers

Super friendly and helpful staff with a real breadth of knowledge. I bought my first SLR with them and they taught me how to operate it and gave me plenty of advice as to the best light meter apps to help me get started. They're the best prices for developing film in notts, and my first rolls came back better than i could've hoped for with a fairly quick turn around time

Lovely lil store

Friendly, efficient and professional services. Always get my film scans/prints back quickly and they look great, and always top up on film while I'm there picking up scans. Brilliant cameras on offer, just the best option in Nottingham for all your analogue desires!!
