Convert Negatives to Digital Service

Digitize Your Negatives Turn a negative situation into a positive memory                                              Cameras work by exposing film to light. And during that light exposure process, chemicals in the film react depending on the level and type of light. Post chemical development process, you’re left with little brown strips, or what we call negatives. It’s common to be more excited about the fully developed photos that accompany those brown strips, but those seemingly insignificant brown strips are what’s left of your actual film. And they’re a lot more valuable than you may have thought. Negatives are often referred to as the backup files of photography. And back in the day, that was accurate. That’s right, those little tiny brown stips of film actually served a purpose – a big one in fact. You see, negatives are your actual pictures – your original images. They’re what allowed you to take film and turn it into printed pictures. And whether it was you personally fiddling around in a dark room back in the day to develop negatives and create prints or you sending them off to your local pharmacy to develop and print, negatives were necessary to make it all happen. From big or small prints to dark or light ones, negatives afforded you the ability to develop your photos just the way you wanted them to look. And when the development process was completed, you could rest assured knowing that you still had your negatives – those little brown strips – just in case you ever needed to reprint any photographs. But now that we’ve fast forwarded several decades, those “backup” negatives are just as much at risk of fading from existence as the fully developed photos themselves. Maybe even more so due to the fact that they’re actual film and even more susceptible to endangerment from poor storage and father time. That’s right, your photos won’t last forever. There’s an extinction clock and it’s counting down as they slowly degrade over time. And the negatives that were supposed to back them up (assuming you’ve kept them this long) are following closely behind.
