SLIDE SCANNING WORLD Sponsored by Saturn Films (1969)
A warm welcome to our website where we promote the transfer of slides, photographs and negatives to a digital format and saved on disc for sharing with your family and friends.
The efficient way to scan your slide and negative
collection is to use a commercial scanning company. In the UK and
Europe there are many companies providing this service,
Saturn Films (1969) is
an example of a British company, based in South Wales, by searching
the net you will find many others.
An excellent reference is Scan Guru -
http://scanguru.info/en/find-a-scanning-service/.
Here you will find companies listed both in the UK and from throughout the World. Another excellent site reviewing scanning impartially
is: http://www.andromeda.com
photo slide-transfer well worth a visit.
The costs of the scanning vary widely from company to
company. The quality of the scanning may be a factor in determining
the price and you need to look at the dpi - dots per inch -
the file format e.g. Jpeg, RAW or TIFF, the disc used CD, DVD Blu-ray,
and the final presentation. Make sure the company you choose is
using excellent quality equipment, after all you too are making an
investment.
We recommend using a company that offers a trial
service so that you are able to judge the quality of the product
before you commit to outlaying a large amount of money,
Saturn Films (1969)
provide such a service, scanning up to six of your images for £6.00.
They send you a demonstration disc with your slide or negative
images and they are always
pleased to discuss projects with customers.
