Negative scanning
Already developed? You're in the right place.
Send us film you've already had processed and we'll turn it into fresh digital scans. It's ideal for old negatives, rescanning favourite rolls or getting better files from film that's been sitting in a drawer for years.

Which scan size do you need?
You don't need the biggest scan for everything. Pick the option that suits what you're planning to do with the images.
01
Low Res
Small, simple files
Ideal when you mainly want digital copies for viewing, sharing online or keeping an archive without large files.
02
Popular
Medium Res
A great everyday scan
A good balance of detail and manageable file size for sharing, storing and making everyday prints.
03
High Res JPG
More room to work
More detail for larger prints, cropping and images you might want to edit further while keeping a straightforward JPG file.
04
TIFF
For maximum flexibility
A larger uncompressed file for images you want to edit heavily, archive at high quality or use for more demanding print work.

Negative scanning FAQ
A few useful things to know.
Still deciding what to order? These cover the main questions we get about rescanning existing film.
Is this for film that has already been developed?
Yes. Negative Scanning is specifically for film that has already been processed. If the film still needs developing, use our film developing service instead.
Which scan resolution should I choose?
Medium Res suits most everyday uses. High Res JPG gives you more detail for larger prints or cropping, while TIFF is best when you want a larger file for more extensive editing or archiving.
How will I receive my scans?
Your finished scans are delivered digitally to the email address used when you placed the order.
Can I order prints as well?
