Why Use Praus?

There are several reasons why working with us just plain works!

Attention—You work directly with the person printing your job. Even our least experienced printer has over ten years of experience!

Consistency—Our volume ensures that our daily processing is stable and consistent. Subtle variations are noted and corrected before they turn into significant changes. Smaller labs that must mix and temper chemistry on a sporadic basis can't achieve our level of consistency.

Convenience – One-stop shopping for film processing and printing. If you like, we can send you contact sheets so you can call in your print order to save time.

Custom Service – We’ll do pushes or pulls on your processing and sleeve your film exactly how you want it. The black-and-white film can be processed in the chemistry of your choice, using either hand or rotary drum agitation. Our printers stock a variety of RC and fiber papers and toners, and our color printers can make contrast masks and use specialized techniques to achieve the “look” you want. We’re happy to send out test prints and contact sheets for evaluation, and we’ll experiment and test until you’re satisfied.

Finally, we offer competitive prices and superior quality and service, especially compared to big-city labs. Customers from NYC, Chicago, and LA ship their films to us, so we must do something right. Need more assurance? Please read our testimonials.
