High Resolution Photo Scans of Film.
For the highest resolution RGB (Red, Green, Blue) film scans we recommend our Drum Scans. Our scanner will rasterize transparencies, and negatives at the highest quality possible. What this means to you is deeper shadow detail without the typical color breaks or gradient banding of inferior film scanning methods. Every image is scanned on its own merit. This means that we never use “global” corrections based on film type. Instead, we correct every drum scan on an image by image basis. We know your prized images are not shot under generic conditions, why should your scans be handled that way? To further enhance the quality of your film scan, all transparencies and negatives are oil mounted to the drum. This helps to remove dust and can actually hide small scratches and abrasions in the film, which saves you valuable retouching time.
Our attention to detail, giving close scrutiny to color fidelity, density, shadow & highlight detail, and overall sharpness truly makes this a custom scan.
If you need a high quality film scan that supports photographic output or large format printing, you can’t beat the high-resolution drum scans.[/donotprint]
Scan Sizes(in MB)
For maximum print quality we recommend you do not upsample your imagine but as the dpi decreases, so does the print quality. We suggest 100 dpi at size as an minimum for somewhat acceptable quality. When in doubt give us a call and we can take a look at your image with you. We offer three basic level of scan from film; 65mb, 80mb and 100mb.

Why Have My Photo or Art Scanned?
Artists, art collectors, curators and aficionados all understand the challenges of capturing a work’s true depth, detail, color, tone, and energy. While there is arguably no substitute for the real thing, Our unique scanning process comes as close to re-creating the real thing as is possible.
But why would you want to have your artwork or photos scanned?
Art and photos are susceptible to damage over time. UV light, oxidation, moisture, fluctuating temperatures, pests, accidents, and natural degradation of the materials used are all real risks. For many photographers and artists, scanning offers an avenue to immortalize their artwork in digital form, while affording them the opportunity to replicate it in various print forms if necessary or needed in the future.
For others, scanning enables them to make prints to sell, use as marketing, for portfolios, galleries and more.
Digital Capture services such as those from Denver Digital Imaging Center are often used to support the art community, enabling organizations from foundations and museums, to art galleries and libraries to display fine art for the world to enjoy, while preserving and protecting the original pieces.
