Does it even make sense to have old negatives scanned?
Yes, the older your negatives are, the more it makes sense, before it is too late. Our additional services like dry cleaning or Premium-inversion via raw data can even then produce very good results.
In what file format are my digitised negatives saved?
By default we save your scanned negatives as JPG files. For special requirements we also provide saving them as TIFF files.
In what resolution are my negatives scanned?
Depending on the quality level you choose, we scan your negatives in 4,250, 5,000 or 6,200 dpi.
Do I get back a digital negative or an inverted negative?
You will get back your negatives inverted.
How should I pack up my negatives?
Envelopes or sleeves are best suitable.
Should I rather have photos scanned or negatives?
In most cases the negative is more suitable to scan, because we can then achieve a higher resolution.
Do I have to remove the paper strips off the negatives?
No! We will remove them in the scanning process.
Should I clean my negatives before I have them scanned?
We absolutely recommend a cleaning. You can either do this yourself or have it done by us professionally for a little extra charge.
Is it possible to only have selected negatives scanned?
No, basically MEDIAFIX scans all negatives on a strip.
