Photos
If it fits in the pre-paid box provided, we'll scan it so long as it meets our media shipping requirements page. Keep in mind that our estimates are based on a 4x6" image size. For example the est. 150-200 images that can fit into a small USPS box, are based on images that are 4x6" in size.
We scan images from 2x3" to 8.5"x11" in size. We also scan polaroid photos

Negatives can be kept in their original protective sleeves from the developer. We will remove them, scan them and place them back into the sleeves.

Tape and Film
Currently, we only support VHS, VHS-C magnetic tape & 8mm and Super 8mm film.
We do not accept Betamax, Mini DV, HI 8(8mm tape), Micro MV, 16mm film or audio cassettes.
Since VHS-C tapes are smaller than standard size VHS tapes, they often get confused with 8mm, Mini DV or Hi 8 tapes. Many people just refer to any small videotape as VHS-C(compact) tape, without regard that it may be a 8mm, Mini DV or Hi 8. In their mind, if it is smaller than a VHS tape, it must be an VHS-C. Determine your Tape Type
Sometimes, film and VHS are so badly deteriorated that we can't possibly attempt to digitize these. If we find that this is the case, we will simply not scan them and ship them back with your other items.
