35MM Slide and Film Scanning Service now available….

I am available to scan 35MM slides or 35MM film and produce digital images. I realized recently that as a photographer who went digital in 1996, I have thousands of slides and film strips I have not looked at in years and likely will not. And no ability to share with family and friends! So I bought a a professional film scanner and being very familiar and competent with Lightroom and Photoshop, have developed a workable work flow for excellent results.

I clean the slide or film. There is an amazing amount of dust your eye cannot see but shows in the scans. I then scan and save, import to Lightroom, color correct, crop, sharpen and do other processing tweaks. Then save a small (1000 pixel) jpg for email and online use and a larger image that will easily print an 8×12 (slide format) 300DPI print. I can do the same for you.

Day 3 1981-82-3The average time spent per slide is 10-20 minutes. It is NOT an automated process and results are superior to the places you ship a shoebox full of images. I will do a single slide or discount for 6, 12 or more. Film must be in strips of 4 to 6. No more, no less. And results vary DRAMATICALLY with the quality of the original film image, sharpness, exposure etc and so results can not be guaranteed. But quaility film will product quality digital images and all can be improved to some degree.

A link to examples of 40 year old slides available on request. I’ll discuss your project and pricing in person or on the phone.
