Photographic Scanning
Photography dates back to early 1800s. Commercially it became available in 1839.
Picture prints in the last two centuries are estimated in the hundred billions.
Our picture scanning to digital format can be done on either our flatbed or automated scanner:
- The flatbed scanner is a high-resolution scanner for pictures that are old, fragile or curved. Pictures that are stuck in albums and can not be removed can be scanned this way. Large pictures that will not fit on standard letter sized flatbeds will can perfectly on our scanner. Picture sizes up to 11.92″ x 16.54″ (30.27 x 42.0 cm). The scanner can also scan documents that are fragile and are in books with minimal or no crease.
- Our automated scanner can capture a high volume of pictures at 300, 600 or 1200 dpi. Pictures captured this way need to be flat with reasonably straight edges. Picture sizes: 2.0″ x 2.5″ to 8.5′ x 34.0″ (5.08 x 6.35 to 21.59 x 86.36 cm)
- Both options can output to JPEG & TIFF single images. PDF, RTF and BMP options are available for document scans.
Please call us for pricing, as volumes, scan type and output needs affect cost estimates.
35mm Slides
35mm slide projectors became common in the 1950s as a convenient way to share pictures. It was called reversal film, and instead of a negative to expose onto photographic paper, it was a positive image meant to be projected onto a screen.
We can transfer 35mm slides in bulk or in small volume. Our machine captures the slide images as high-resolution JPEG files. We are also able to scan 35mm (and other sized) negatives.
Prices depend on volume, output options and if the slides are loose or pre-loaded into carousels. Please call us for more details and pricing estimates.


Negative Scanning
Before a picture was printed, the image started out on a negative. We can scan negatives of a variety of sizes. 35mm film reels or strips are the most common, however, we can also scan 16mm, 24mm, 46mm and 60mm negatives.
Please call us for pricing, as volumes, scan type and output needs affect cost estimates.
Memory Videos
Many of our customers are looking to take their still images and make them into video slideshows. As a second step to digitizing your images (or taking your existing digital images), we are able to make custom videos with music and titles. Video clips can also be added.
Because all editing is custom, your video is made to order.
