SCANNING
Film Scanning
We have four types of film scanners capable of amazing scans of all film types and formats. Please contact us about which service will best suit your needs.
Fuji Frontier - Scanning for 35mm and 120 film formats. Hasselblad X-Pan and 120 up to 6x9 available. For 120 larger than 6x9 refer to Imacon.
Imacon Flextight 848 - Higher resolution scans from all film formats up to 4x5”.
Howtek 7500 Drum Scanner - See drum scanning.
Fine Art Scanning
Fine Art scanning is making a high resolution digital file from any hard copy (prints, artworks, paintings, posters, photographs etc).
We have the ability to scan very large originals. Our digital artists can accurately size and colour-match the digital file to your original artwork.
Also popular for copying damaged family photographs, maps or anything you want to preserve. We can scan the original and restore it to look as new.
We can scan almost anything. Just ask!
Drum Scanning
At PCL we use the combination of the Howtek 7500 Drum Scanner and AZTEK DPL 8.1 Pro Software to get the most out of your film.
Our software optimises the ability of the scanner to produce true 48 bit files from your negative, transparency and B/W film, up to 11x14”.
File sizes to several gigabytes are now possible without any resampling. The drum scanner is the only way to go for premium film scanning to get the most out of your film, especially if you are shooting 4x5 or 8x10.
