What Are Slides?

Slides (also called transparencies) are positive photographic images on transparent film mounted in cardboard or plastic frames, typically viewed through projection or held up to light.

How Digitization Works?

Many people ask how we digitize slides. The short answer is that we use a semi-automated process with professional, industrial-grade equipment—not something you can easily replicate with a device or software at home. This ensures high-quality results and allows us to handle even large orders on time.

The process is semi-automated because the first step involves our team manually inspecting your slides.

Our digitization services go beyond just transferring images. We offer standard color correction for improved visual quality. By taking this extra step, we make sure your memories are preserved in the best possible quality, so they can last for a long time.

File Format & Quality

You will receive 12-megapixel JPEG files for each photo (smaller slide formats may be scanned at lower megapixels). 

The Capture 100% Guarantee

To ensure your digital copies are of the best quality, we offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

If for any reason you are not satisfied with the outcome of your order, we will happily reprocess it for you at no cost, within 60 days.
