This cool Bali Lane film store reopens with more film cameras and an Instax photobooth

Singapore’s homegrown film store Hands on Film has quietly reopened along Bali Lane – location unchanged – unveiling a refreshed space with more cameras, merchandise, and added experiences to check out.

At its core, Hands On Film has long been more than just a retail space. What started out as a film development service has since grown into an anchor for Singapore’s analogue community – a place where beginners can ask questions without hesitation, regulars can trade tips, and everyone is united by a shared appreciation for film photography.

Inside, the film camera selection spans a thoughtful range: from disposables and compact point-and-shoots to rangefinders and SLRs for those who prefer a more hands-on approach. There’s also a dedicated “junkie’s corner” for those hoping to chance upon a specific camera part, offering an assortment of spare parts and components.

Beyond retail, get your photo taken at its newly opened photobooth. The photo format? A 2-in-1 Instax Wide – this means you’ll be able to take home the physical print on the spot.

The new store is also stocked with items from its recent collaboration with local brand Wacky Wears, introducing a capsule collection of  film photography-themed shirts, pants, and hats, as well as a photo wall featuring images contributed by customers.
