127 Super Slides (4×4 cm) Scanning

Please keep 127 Super Slides separate from regular 35mm slides. We set up the scanner differently for 4×4 cm images mounted in 2×2 frames. If you mix them, they may be scanned like 35mm and end up cropped.

127 Super Slide in 2x2 mount

127 Super Slides are taken on 127 roll film and mounted in standard 2" × 2" frames, but with a larger film area than 35mm.

Handling Tips & Stacking

127 slides cannot be intermixed with regular 35mm in your shipment. Please place them in a clearly labeled, separate stack so we can set up and scan the whole group efficiently—and without cropping.

Fragile Mounts

The cardboard mounts on 127 slides are often thinner and can be bent or warped. Avoid tight rubber bands. If you must secure stacks, wrap loosely with plastic film (e.g., Saran Wrap) rather than compressing with bands.

We’ll do our best with bent mounts, but please note that severely warped film can limit scan quality. In extreme cases, consider removing and trimming the film to re-mount in a standard 35mm frame.
