How we scan photos

Simply deliver your photos to us by mail and we’ll digitise them:

  • in high quality for easy viewing on PC, TV and smartphone.
  • on a storage medium of your choice (e.g. DVD or USB) or as a direct download.
  • with the greatest possible care and GDPR-compliant.

Choose how you would like to receive your digitised photos back:

  • on a USB stick or hard disk, for viewing on your computer
  • as a download link, accessible on several devices
  • on DVD, for viewing on the telly

If you want, we’ll make additional copies for your friends and relatives.

Send your old photos to our MEDIAFIX Logistics Centre.

After we’ve scanned your photos, you’ll get them back on your preferred storage medium or as a direct download. We’ll send your original and digitised photos back to you by post.

Digitise photos at the highest quality

Digitised photo in Standard+ quality

Want to scan old photos and archive them afterwards? Then, choose the Standard+ quality. With its resolution  of 600 dpi, you will be able to enlarge and print your photos by up to 200%.

Digitised photo in Premium quality
Scans with our premium quality in 900 dpi meet higher demands. The results impress with high detail sharpness, improved colour reproduction and better contrasts. They enable prints up to A3 format and an excellent display on 4K monitors.

Digitised photo in High-end quality
With 1,200 dpi and a density range of 4.5, the high-end quality sets new standards for photo digitisation. Choose this quality level to get the best colours, contrasts and an excellent resolution.

Our high-end post-processing provides an intelligent colour restauration, which enhances the quality of your photos. Are the paleness and colour casts due not to age but to the original image from your camera? Even in this case, our post-processing will improve the results.

  • We optimise the colours: our post-processing corrects even extreme colour casts, resulting in a natural-looking image.
  • We improve the contrasts: we adjust the contrast in both colour and black-and-white pictures.
  • You can compare the results: You receive both the processed and unprocessed scans so that you can see the improvements directly.

We colourise your black-and-white pictures, using a specialised AI. Here are the main advantages of this technology:

  • A big surprise for family and friends: your black-and-white photos are colourised with a powerful AI tool. Your family will be surprised to see their ancestors in colour.
  • Before and after comparison: You receive both the original black-and-white photos and the colourised scans, so you can see the difference for yourself.
  • We keep the analogue photos as they are: Your photos remain intact in their analogue  form. Only the digitised images are copied and colourised.

If not stored properly, photos tend to collect dust over time. Our professional dry cleaning removes dust from your old photos, without damaging them. Here are the main benefits:

  • Dust reduction: our professional cleaning service significantly reduces dust on your pictures.
  • Cleaner images: You no longer have to worry about annoying dirt on the digitised photos.
  • Improved image quality: Clean photo surfaces lead to clearer and higher quality results.

Just like old analogue pictures and films, paper photos also have limited durability. In particular, photo paper from the 80’s and 90’s is especially bad. What’s more, there’s nothing you can do to restore damaged photos.

Scan photos to digital now before it’s too late:

  • With time your photos start to fade or colour casts appear.
  • Light exposure worsens these effects. But even if stored in the dark, colour quality starts to decrease.
  • In particular, black-and-white photos start turning yellow and spoiled.
  • Repeated viewing also leads to photo damage, such as finger prints, stains, scratches, tears and so on.
  • Framed photos on walls will fade even faster if they’re exposed to sunlight.
