Slide & Negative Scanning to Digital
Let the Experts Take Care of Your Slides and Photo Negatives
Many of us have home scanners that can be used to take images of photos, but these rarely give high-quality results.
Results that you can show in high definition on your television or on a large overhead screen, for instance.
We use professional scanners that not only scan photos but slides and negatives too, in resolutions up to a maximum of 5400dpi. This makes them suitable for blowing up for large format printing and viewing.
We provide files in high resolution .jpeg. tiff, or PDF file formats.
If you would like us to email you some samples of your scans prior to commencing the job, just let us know.
What we do :
All slides and negatives are lightly cleaned and dust blown prior to being scanned.
Once pre-scanned a number of filters are applied (if required) to correct colour, lighting & remove particles appearing on the images.
We can also create a slideshow of photographs & slides so they can be viewed on your television, great for tributes, birthdays and anniversaries.
We convert the following size formats:
Slides
Photo Negatives
Most imperfections on slides are digitally removed, some stubborn stains & marks cannot be. For best results, slides should be stored in containers to avoid dust, heat, dampness & scratching.
This slide shows an example of how mould & damp conditions can ruin your slide collection.
Before & After Scanning
Our scanning machines at Convert It have a number of excellent digital enhancing effects to make your slides & negatives look great again. The images on the left below have no effects applied to them, the ones on the right do. You can see the dust and marks are reduced & the colour tones are more natural.
