Our Instagram is made by the people who use the lab.

More than 700 customer collaborations, featuring photographs developed by Picture This and shared by the people who made them. Rather than filling the account with adverts, we use it to celebrate our customers, support film photography and document the work being created in and around Brighton.

Used film cameras and lenses

A remarkable collection of cameras, chosen to be used again.

Our website shows only a small selection. Visit the Brighton shop to explore a much broader range of film cameras and lenses—part working camera shop, part living museum.

Tactile, enduring and made for deliberate photography, these cameras offer an escape from screens, menus and the endless upgrade cycle.
