    Our standard film scanners output in JPEG format, however TIFF format is available upon request.
  • What is “Push” and “Pull” on the film order form?

    Download our Print order form here. Fill out the form and send it along with your film packaged securely for shipping. Make sure your film is protected for the journey here.
  • Do you offer a custom print profile?

    Yes! The easiest way for us to set that up is for you to send us examples of your image style so we can reference back to them. It usually takes a few rolls of film for us to figure out how you like your profile. The more feedback from you the easier it is for us to get it right for you.

    Turnaround times are hard to predict. Here are some guidelines you can go by.
