SCANNING & DIGITIZING - Leaders in bulk slide scanning and digitizing.
At Rapid Photo & Image Centre, our 25 years of expertise in the photofinishing industry has positioned us as specialists in the analog to digital archiving field. Whether it is a single negative of your earliest memory or a complete slide collection of your museum's artifacts, allow us to safely preserve your images with the latest in digital capture technology.
By implementing Kodak's latest image restoration algorithms with our state of the art equipment, we have the ability to turn your precious and most valuable images into digital files you can cherish and enjoy forever.
For institutions requiring bulk slide scanning for archiving purposes, our process meets the standards of digitization of the The Canadian Heritage Information Network (CHIN). By eliminating the need for unnecessary handling and movement of precious artifacts, our services are invaluable to the seamless transition of converting fragile 35mm slides or transparencies to vivid, vibrant and permanent digital files.
Slides requiring extra special attention can be individually scanned by hand. Additional post production services such as level enhancements, resizing, identification and file management are made available for you so you can concentrate on your images instead of time consuming technical details.
