How we scan

35mm and 120, color and black and white, go through the Fuji Frontier SP 3000. Digital ICE removes minor dust and scratches on color film. It does not work on traditional black and white, so we keep those scans as clean as we can by hand.

4 x 5 negatives are scanned on the Epson V750 for 4 x 5 negatives.

TIFF delivery

JPEG is the default. Add TIFF for $3 per 120 roll or $5 per 35mm roll. Quantity discounts do not apply to TIFF delivery, and TIFF orders can take longer.

Typical turnaround
