About Negative Scanning
We offer a wide range of Slide film scanning from the common 35mm through to 127 super. Due to the small size of film in comparison to a photo, higher resolutions are required to provide the same results.
We use Epson V700 and V800 scanners to achieve the great results that our customers are expecting with the service including a gentle air brush to remove loose dust, before scanning.
The service also includes Silverfast iSRD dust and scratch removal, correct orientation, auto colour and sharpness optimisation. Pricing starts at $1.40 per frame.

Silverfast iSRD
Digital ICE can also be used at the time of scanning colour slides to help reduce scratches, dust and mould. This service is free for all 1200 dpi and 2400 dpi scans.

Ultra High Resolution
4800 dpi will provide advanced editing and print to print to nearly A3 size from a 6X4 scan.

Excellent service with multiple storage options including USB’s, iCloud storage, a 1 month link to stored files with Photo Digital Services. Both Kylie & Shane were very approachable & friendly, open to questions & on all occasions ready to suggest examples of how the photographs could be restored and saved for family. Attention to detail is a hallmark of their work and service.

Shane did such excellent work scanning my treasured memories. The turnover was quicker than expected and he even took the time to scan the back of photos that had dates and notes on them. Communication was 100% as well. You can rest assured your photos are in good hands with Photo Digital Services.
