Printing in Tokyo? (Photo) -
10-09-2008, 11:53 AM
To any photographing people with some Tokyo experience:
I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips for good places to print here? By that I mean good quality, service, and decent prices. I am thinking of mostly around a4-sizes. I know there are like 243424 places that I could print photos, but I don't wanna pay for crappy quality. I'd much rather hear from someone who actually did it before.

I have no idea what the "Flame war" posts were about but here are a few things you can try. I am a photographer but never printed anything in Tokyo, but have asked the same question to some fellow photographers in the past.
Nihon Hasshoku on Roppongi-dori, on the other side of the elevated highway from ANA Hotel and the Ark Hills building. I heard good things about these guys. There is a Fuji Frontier lab near the Tameike-Sanno subway exit to ANA Hotel. From what I heard, their work is not as good as Nihon Hasshoku, but reasonable, and reasonably priced Horiuchi Color has several locations and does good work http://www.horiuchi-color.co.jp/index2/index2.html You can also try National Photo in Harajuku. There is also a chain call Create, which has branches all over Tokyo Good Luck!

I have no personal experience in Tokyo - but I do know that most of the chain photo developers around here also offer professional development. It costs more, and they send the film off to be done professionally - but it is of very high quality.
It is something you have to ask about at the store, as they`d prefer you went with what makes them the most money. The professional services generally aren`t advertised much.

I just wanna say that I did not mean to flame, stupid of me as I maybe went a little over the line. But it should be legal to ask questions here about Japan or Tokyo even though I actually live here, no?
godwine and Nyororin: Thanks alot! I will check out those places and take your advice. Perhaps I'll post here with my thoughts if I print some photos.
