A bit unrelated, but my gf is living in S. Korea, and she sent her holiday snapshits to a professional lab, she said the photos were nothing special, but I was curious to see the results.
Holy mother of god, they were fucking gorgeous - the processing was done spot on, as if they knew the exact colour profile of the film. She uses a Minolta X-700 with a 35mm F2.8. She is knows her shit photo-wise as she has a degree in it, but she took that Fuji Superia 200 and made gold out of it.
I use the exact same film, and prints are meh, and the scans are a total abomination. I go to the place that is most convenient and that's boots - a shitty pharmacy chain, who's photolab is dead in the water. If you're not English and have no idea what I'm on about, it's basically a Walgreen's photolab. They charge me £8.50 for dogshit, and if I'm honest, it's the best in the town since there are places like Jessops that have managed to ruin my shit.
