With
the increasing popularity, power and affordability of modern personal
computer systems, it is now possible for even the casual photographer
to produce images that a short time ago would have been deemed impossible.
More and more photographers are embracing this new era in imaging by purchasing
computer systems for professional and personal use, but while traditional
film-based photography has evolved to produce images of unsurpassed quality,
digital photography is still in it's infancy and most serious photographers
still prefer the convenience and quality of film.

scanners for your PC or Apple Mac can provide reasonable results, but if
image quality is absolutely paramount, then we have the latest technology
operated by skilled staff, at competitive prices. We offer a wide range
of scanning services and our state-of-the-art high-end Imacon scanners can

|
|
We
can accommodate 35mm negatives and transparencies in strips or individual
cut frames; 120 negatives and transparencies in strips or individual cut
frames; 5 x 4 negatives and transparencies, and prints and artwork up
to A3 size.
|
|
| Due
to the way in which negatives and transparencies are held in place by the
scanning equipment, images will be cropped on all edges by 1-2mm - this
is unavoidable. Please bear this in mind when submitting images for scanning.
All film requiring Custom Scanning should be sent in unmounted. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| By
default, we save scans as RGB format TIFF files (Custom Scanning) or JPEG
files (all other services), as this meets the requirements of the photographic
industry and the vast majority of our customers. We can, if requested, scan
transparencies to CMYK format TIFF files at no extra charge. Regrettably,
we cannot provide CMYK format TIFF files from negatives. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
| We
can scan most films up to 5 x 4, including non-standard or obsolete formats
(126, etc.) but due to the method employed to hold films securely when scanning,
some image cropping may be inevitable when dealing with these formats. |
