Photo service FAQs for Colindale customers
What is involved when you help with E6 slide film and transparency services, and how are the scans or prints supplied?
The process starts with checking the material and the result you need. 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. Scans can be supplied in the agreed file format and prints can be added where the service allows. Where several choices exist, we explain the trade-offs clearly.
Can you recover footage from a damaged or broken videotape, and will you confirm the transfer price before starting?
Yes, this can be arranged. A damaged cassette needs inspection before playback because forcing it can worsen the problem. Describe the damage and review our video tape repair service. Format, quantity, condition and selected output are checked before the transfer price is confirmed. If anything is unusual, use our contact page before travelling.
