We offer three tiers of digitizations ranging from Value Print scanning to museum archival quality with our High Resolution DT Atom Digitization System. We work with our clients to choose the best process for them based on their needs and budgets for a specific project/job.
Value Print Scan
A small pass through print only scanner
- Ideal for larger quantities of small prints to be used for social media, family archives & small reproductions
- Small color or B&W prints 3.5” x 5” up to 8” x 10”
- Prints must be in good condition – no tears, scalloped or deckled edges
- Prints are scanned at 600ppi, generating a file twice the physical size as the original.
- Auto correction software used for color correction, contrast and sharpness
- Great for archiving family photos in good condition
- Jpeg only
Flatbed Scans
Prints, film, small flat works – Mid Tier
- Ideal for medium resolution bulk scanning
- Also good for prints and documents up to 8×10 – Photos not suitable for a pass through scanner (ie: folds, tears, and irregular edges), documents, and some flat artworks.
- Additional editing available for an hourly fee
- Prints/Artwork scanned @600ppi
- Negatives scanned for prints up to 11×14
High Resolution Digitization of film & prints
Drum scanner quality at a fraction of the price
At the heart of our high resolution digitization services is a PhaseOne Camera mounted with a specialized lens designed to capture either film or reflective media. The camera and lens are mounted to a custom made system that allows for reproductions up to 20×24” in a single capture (larger pieces can be reproduced with multiple captures).The object being reproduced is illuminated by an LED lighting system that has both a Color Rendering Index (CRI) and a Color Quality Index (CQI) of 98 out of 100 points. This means that you can receive the drum scan quality digital reproductions of your original at an affordable price. Follow this link to see how our system compares to other digitization methods, and read our Instant Image Capture – White Paper 2-8-22 for a complete overview.
