Cropping Options
• Crop to Picture: Focuses on the main image area, eliminating peripheral elements. This option is most often selected for scanning old home movies.
• Partial Perforation/Sprocket Hole: This cropped view eliminates edge markings and a portion of the perforation/sprocket hole, but still allows for the capture to give off that “vintage film style”. Often selected because it is the best of both worlds with cropping and aesthetic appeal.
• Full Perforation/Sprocket Hole: This view incorporates the entirety of the perforation/sprocket hole so that some edge markings are available, but it does not include the edges of other frames above or below. Often selected for its artistic appeal.
• Full Image Overscan: Provides the largest view available, incorporating perforations/sprocket holes, edge markings, top and bottom of the other frames, and other peripheral artifacts. This is often selected when the customer wants every single element of the film capture.
All orders for film processing are billed a standard shipping and handling charge of $5.00 for the first roll and $0.50 for each additional roll. Additional charges may apply if expedited shipping options are selected. For further information about shipping click here.
