High Resolution Scanning of Slides and Photos


Why Scan Slides?

With quality improvements in digital imaging technology, transferring slides to digital files has become very popular! By transferring your slides to CD/USB or Video DVD you can condense hundreds (or even thousands) of bulky individual slides along with dozens of carousels and boxes onto a space saving disk. This is also a great time to organize your slides and to get rid of any duplicates, out of focus slides, "vacation" slides that picture only a mountain, beach or tree and may not be as meaningful now. If you would like to view your slides before transferring, we have slide projectors available for rent. If you do not know how to use a slide projector, don't worry! We will teach you!

Another advantage of having your slides transferred to video is that you can make additional copies of your CD or DVD so that other family members may share the joy of these precious images. 

  1. High Resolution Scan - This transfer technique results in the creation of individual digital files for each slide that are then recorded onto a CD/USB drive. As the name suggests, the resolution quality of scanned slides is much higher than those that are scanned for television. We use professional slide scanners.  After the slides have been digitized, you can easily view the images by using your home computer, laptop, etc. This is also a great option if you want to print out any of the images, upload them to a website or even e-mail them to friends and family. 

  • Transferred to CD/USB for use on computer.
  • High resolution scanning of each slide/photo using Professional Scanners.
  • Dust and scratches are cleaned up when scanned with the use of DIGITAL ICE technology.
  • Slides can often appear very red, blue, or green and we color correct them as needed.
  • *All slides are returned to you in their original condition. They are not harmed or altered via the transfer processes.

    This sounds great! What should I do?

    All you need to do is to:

    1. Sequence the slides in the order that they should be transferred. If they are in Kodak style carousels (80 or 140 count), please ship them in the carousels.
    2. Complete the order form.
    3. Send the order form along with your slides to the address shown below.

    How long does this take?

    Processing of your order usually takes about 2-3 weeks from the time that we receive it. This timing may extend out longer based on order backlog.
