My film is really old, can you process it?

Yes, we can process old film but depending on age and previously kept conditions, we can not promise or be sure of the results of your negatives. 

 SCANNING

What is the resolution of your scans?

We offer high res films scans with zero compression. Scanning resolution depends on format and camera aspect ratio.

Maximum scan resolution:

Standard Res scans 1500×1000 pixels

High Res scans are 3000×2000 pixels

Super Res scans are 6000×4000 pixels

What kind of scanner do you use?

We use a Noritsu HS-1800 commercial film scanner for all 35mm and 120 film. WE scan 4×5, 110, APS film on a Epsom V850 flatbed scanner. 

Can you scan film from speciality cameras like 3D and half frame cameras?

Yes, we can scan half frame and 3D camera photos from Reto, Nimslo and Nishika cameras. 

What is the difference between JPEG and TIFF?

JPEG is a file that is compressed down into a smaller size typically used for web or prints. TIFF is a file format that is uncompressed and great for retouching your photos in post. 

A 35mm High Res JPEG scan is around 6MB , while a 35mm High Res TIFF scale is around 19MB. 

Can you scan Polaroids?

Yes, we can scan Polaroids and Instax Instant Film. 

My negatives are old/expired, can you scan it?

We will try our very best to scan your old/expired negatives. However depending on age and previously kept conditions, results may vary & ability to produce scans aren’t promised.
