35mm Slide & Negative Scanning FAQ
-
You have two options when it comes to the digitization of your 35mm slides & negatives. You can invest in a scanner and digitize the negatives/slides yourself, or you can hire a company like Digital Roots Studio do do the scanning to digital for you. The cost may be cheaper when shipping your materials out of state, but you risk possible damage/loss of shipment when not handing your materials to someone directly.
-
No, you don’t need to organize your materials prior to dropping off. Some clients will organize the slides & negatives prior to dropping off, this way each grouping can be scanning into its own0folder by subject and/or year. We ask that all slides/negatives be in groupings of no less than 20 per grouping.
-
We have two resolutions to choose from, either 2000ppi or 4000ppi.
-
No, we do not offer frame selection when scanning the negatives.
-
The digital images can be given back to you on a USB empty drive that you supply, you can buy a drive from us, DVD-ROM or we can do a web upload for an additional fee. (not a cloud storage. Download only available for one month before auto deletion.
-
We use the Nikon 5000 to scan all 35mm slides and negatives.
