Scanning services
Our laboratory handles the scanning of individual 35mm format negatives or un-mounted medium format transparencies through their Noritsu HS-1800 scanner for us.
Approximately 18mb file size per frame. Note: this is the amount of DATA in the file. When saved in JPEG format, the file will appear to occupy around 1mb of space on DISK. This is NOT the file size. JPEG format collapses down when closed, so it takes up less space on file, and can be more easily distributed. When the file is opened, then it becomes full size, 18mb – this is the clever part about the JPEG format.
The same scan can also be saved in TIFF format, and under these circumstances, the file will occupy 18mb on disk – so much more cumbersome. However the advantage of TIFF is it can be worked on, saved, re-saved, edited etc etc. with no loss in quality, as TIFF is a “Non-Lossy” format. If customers are intending to edit a file, then it should be coverted to TIFF or some other non-lossy format (eg. PSD) first, and then worked on. If you work on JPEGS, they deteriorate and look awful when printed.
Pixel Dimensions: 3089 x 2048 at 72 dpi
NOTE: 72dpi is the OUTPUT resolution. This is NOT the scan resolution (this would be considerably higher, 4000 or something, depending on the scan type)
Colour, contrast, density balance: individually corrected by experienced colour balance technicians
Each image is professionally balanced by eye for colour, density and contrast, unless you select otherwise. Saved into JPEG format. 18mb file size, but will vary from image to image (note: JPEG files appear smaller than actual size when closed on disk)
Note: Images are cleaned up for dust with ICE software. However, this can not be used with black and white film, and whilst the lab make every effort to remove dust before scanning they can not guarantee black and white scans will be totally dust free, especially as film may have been processed years earlier, handled or poorly stored.
Old, dirty colour film may also not fully clean up with Digital ICE.
