Has anyone uses, or have experience of dealing with this photo lab?

I have never heard of them myself, but that means nothing.

This is the selling spiel from the zenfolio site.

I am using zenfolio within my website for hosting images, and with the account i have, allows me to use photobox for automatically fulfilled orders.
I have never had a problem with them, but i am aware others have.

Zenfolio have just introduced a new feature to a higher subscription package to allow auto fulfilment with a pro lab, One Vision Imaging.

The difference in yearly cost to me is minimal, just a £40 difference. But before i do it, it would be good to hear if anyone else has used them, and what they are like.

They are the old Colab group from years back, I think they were based in Coventry, they were bought out by Multiprint Imaging and relaunched as One Vision Imaging about 2005.
Might be worth trying a few prints to check their quality.
 
I have just ordered two 10x8 metallic prints and 2 lustre 6x4s.

Expensive compared to photobox and DSCL but I wanted to see for myself. I am going to order one of the 10x8s from DSCL in their metallic so that I can compare them side by side.

I'll report back once I have the two sets back.
 
Thanks Lindsay.
 
I used them for years when they were Colab. They had branches in Coventry, Birmingham and Wolverhampton. They were always considered a top lab. If you paid a little extra for your processing you got a guy in a white coat actually individually printing each image so it was an excellent service.Most pros I knew took their work there.

They used to print a numeric code on the back of each print which showed how close ( or not) you'd got to ideal exposure
 
any updates to this thread?
thanks

Sorry I did mean to come back.

The two metallic and two lustre prints I had done were excellent. The best prints I have ever had.

I also got prints done at DSCL which were very good as well.

The difference in price for me is not worth it for prints that will go in a personal album.

However if I need enlargements that will go on a wall then I will use One Vision.
