Photo service FAQs for Bromley By Bow customers
Is it possible to scan 8mm, 9.5mm or 16mm cine film, and how do I choose the most useful digital format?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. Cine film is assessed by gauge, reel length and condition before scanning to digital files. See the available formats on our cine film transfer page. We can explain file compatibility and storage choices after identifying the source format. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can your Highgate shop help with E6 slide film and transparency services, and do I need to book before bringing the film?
Our Highgate shop can help with this service. The correct route depends on whether the film needs processing, scanning or printing. Identify the film label if possible and review our E6 and transparency information. Routine film orders are usually accepted without an appointment, but rare formats should be checked first. For rare, damaged or unidentified material, contact us before bringing the whole collection.
Is it possible to recover footage from a damaged or broken videotape, and can several tapes or reels share one order?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. A damaged cassette needs inspection before playback because forcing it can worsen the problem. Describe the damage and review our video tape repair service. Multiple tapes or reels can share an order when numbering and labels make the sequence clear. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can your Highgate shop prepare international passport, visa and ID photographs, and will you confirm the price before taking the photograph?
Our Highgate shop can help with this service. Requirements vary by country, document type and application method, so bring the application instructions when available. Browse our passport, visa and ID photo services. We confirm the document type, required output and price before taking the final photograph. For rare, damaged or unidentified material, contact us before bringing the whole collection.
Is it possible to accept suitable work by post or through an online order, and how should irreplaceable originals be packed?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. Some digital services can be ordered online and selected film or media work can be arranged by post after checking the details. Use our contact page before sending valuable material. Use rigid protection, waterproof outer packaging and tracked delivery for irreplaceable originals. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can your Highgate shop prepare passport or visa photos from an online order, and what application details should I bring?
Our Highgate shop can help with this service. Online orders need an original, unedited camera file with space around the head and shoulders. Follow the instructions on our online passport photo page. Bring the application instructions, country, document type and application route when available. For rare, damaged or unidentified material, contact us before bringing the whole collection.
Could your team make photo prints from a USB drive or memory card, and do I normally need to order in advance?
Our team deals with this type of request regularly. Keep the original files at their full resolution and organise them into a clearly named folder where possible. See the options for digital photo printing. Standard counter orders are usually walk-in, although a large or unusual job is best discussed first. We avoid unnecessary changes to original photographs, film and recordings.
