Example resolutions

Image enhancements

When digitizing your films, you can also opt for image enhancements. This corrects the images for brightness, image stabilization, colors, sharpness, noise, dirt and stains. Making the result more beautiful. See the example scans below for examples. We charge a subcharge of €0,75 per minute.

Mould removal

If the films to be scanned have stains caused by moulds, we can specially clean the films. With our mould cleaning machine we can remove between 85% and 100% of the stains from the films. See the example scans below for examples. We charge a subcharge of €2,25 per minute.

Wetgate

Wetgate scannen: hiermee worden krassen of verticale lijnen in de film bij het scannen verwijderd.

Met behulp van een wetgate pomp wordt een dun laagje Isopropanol op de film aangebracht, net voordat de film het scan venster passeert.

Door dit dun laagje vloeistof worden krasjes in de film opgevuld en zijn die een stuk minder zichtbaar tijdens het scannen. Voordat de film weer op de rol komt, is de vloeistof verdampt en heeft verder geen invloed op de film.

De toeslag voor wetgate scannen is € 0,50 per minuut film.

Our process

Preparing the films

  • Every film gets an unique number.
  • If absent, a film leader will be attached to the film.
  • The films will be checked for bad welds. If there are any bad welds they will be repaired.
  • If necessary the films will be cleaned with professional filmcleaner.

Scanning

  • We scan with the professional Blackmagic Cintel 35mm film scanner.
  • Each frame will get a separate recording.
  • We can handle all speeds of recorded films (for example 18 or 24 frames per second).
  • Sound on the films is also digitized.

Output

  • After scanning and possibly applying image enhancements, the films can be transferred to any format you want.
  • We can transfer it as ready-made video files. These files can then be played directly on your computer, television, tablet, media player and smartphone.
  • We can provide the video files in different video formats. For more information, see our codec page.
