Negative/Slide Scans ($20 per hour)

Service Description

Digitize and preserve your precious memories by converting them into high-quality digital images, suitable for print or online sharing. After scanning, all images are straightened, cropped to the frame edge and saved in two labelled folders: .TIFF and .JPG. .TIFF files* - 48-bit, and scanned at 600 dpi resolution. - .TIFF files are your archival digital copy negatives, meant to be kept intact and unedited. .JPG files* - 48-bit and scanned at 300 dpi resolution. - The .JPG files can be used for editing, cropping, colour correction and sharing. *A high resolution 48-bit scan allows for maximum editing flexibility, and will capture greater tonal values. This helps to prevent harsh banding or posterization when colour correcting or editing the exposure. Please note: In order to maintain visual integrity and archival file structure, it is recommended that you do not edit the digital copy negative .TIFF files. Dust and scratch removal will be applied to negative, photo and slide scans. Colour correction will only be performed on the .JPG files if it has been requested. Bring Your Own USB. Archival Memories does not provide USB storage devices with this service. USB storage devices that are at least 64 gigabytes and above are recommended.
