Since I got my own scanner for film, I never bother doing scans at the labs, but I recently had a few rolls developed at Costco, where I always develop my negative films, and I asked them to scan the pictures because I didn't had time to do it.
When I checked the images on the screen, I thought the pictures weren't that good and I blamed the camera, so I decided to scan some of the same pictures my self to see what happens.
The pictures coming from my scanner, the Epson V600 were much better, the colors were more natural, the image sharper, and surprisingly with more details.
It's funny, because the V600 cost about $250 and the industrial Noritsu costs about $15,000. Noritsu and Fuji industrial scanners are the most common scanners in any photo lab.

Or maybe not. This is the view from an elevated pedestrian walkway that used to connect Rupert Street with Nelson Street in Bristol. The flat-roofed building nearest the camera, known colloquially as "The House of See No Evil" (on account of its extensive graffiti), was demolished in October 2014. The adjacent office block on the left was the Police Headquarters Extension of 1967 by A.H. Clarke, city architect. This building has also since succumbed to the wrecking ball, its end coming in November 2014. Other buildings of note visible on the skyline are the Harvey Nicholls and Castlemead towers, the Galleries shopping centre, the Fairfax Street multi-storey car park and the former Employment Exchange of 1931. Photograph taken Saturday 30th August 2014.

After seeing this site
I was inspired to make a scanner camera of my own. I made it out of an old box, some duct tape and a telephoto lens. All my lenses just about fit without much adjustment. Oh McGuyver would be proud. Tried several lenses but found the telephoto to work best. Hoping to get a lomo to put in there *ahemcoughmarkcoughahem* hint hint.
Photos coming soon.
