Sorry, but we only scan certain negtive films.

Take a look at your negative films and try to identify them so that you can determine if we scan them

YES

YES

NO

 

When a camera takes a picture using negative film, it is imaged onto the negative film. It is a reversed (negative) image of what you actually see. If you were using black and white film, whatever was white in the picture is black on the film. Whatever is black in the picture is white on the film. The same goes for color negative film. Whatever was one color in your picture will be just the reverse color on the film. When the film is printed, it is printed as a reverse of what the film was and ends up a positive and the colors are correctly rendered. We scan the negative film and then we have to reverse the colors with our image editing program. We also scan glass plate negatives and positives.

Color-negative films produce color negatives, from which color prints are made. Color-reversal films produce transparent positive imaged film that look like the original scenes you photographed. These are cut into individual frames and mounted and you have color slides for projection.
