Do you clean the photos before scanning?
Yes. When necessary, we use compressed air to remove dust from slides and negatives. We use special professional grade photo cleaner on printed photos in need of dust removal. In addition, our scanners use Digital ICE technology for slides and negatives to automatically remove dust and minor scratches.

What type of equipment do you use?
Scanorb has implemented a highly refined, professional process which utilizes the Epson 4490 and 4990 scanners for prints and the Nikon Super CoolScan 5000 ED for slides and negatives. Our process relies on Digital ICE during the initial processing phase, but every image is manually processed to remove any remaining blemishes, ensuring the highest quality available and providing unsurpassed customer care.
We will manually rotate your photos and crop any black border left after the scanning process. In addition, we will color correct, remove dust, minor blemishes and digitally optimize the photos to provide you the best digital images possible. Scanorb was founded to provide the premier, highest quality services available; all of which are included with our standard pricing.
If your computer has a DVD drive, DVDs are the preferred method as they hold approximately seven times the number of images that a CD holds. If you do not have access to a DVD drive, CDs will work fine. Scanorb includes one set of discs with every order free of charge. Additional copies can be included at the rate of $10 per copy. Photography DVDs are created as data discs and may not play in all DVD players. If your DVD player cannot play data discs, you can purchase a simple slideshow for $15 and your images will be loaded to a video DVD dis
In most cases, scanning from negatives produces a higher quality result. Furthermore, organizing your photos based on a roll of negatives tends to be much easier. If possible please send in your negatives.
DPI stands for dots per inch or pixels per inch. DPI represents the resolution, accuracy, sharpness and clarity of your digital picture. A higher DPI is generally associated with a higher quality image; however, if the DPI exceeds the resolution of the original media, a higher DPI can actual diminish the quality of the image. Our default scanning is performed at 300 DPI for paper photos which is more than sufficient for using your digital photos electronically and also provides the ability to reprint any photo in the same size as its original. We provide an option to scan your paper photos with 600 DPI and with this higher resolution you can enlarge your image to a size twice as large as the original. Based on millions of scans, we find that the optimal DPI levels are: 300 - 600 DPI for paper photos depending on your expected use and 2000 - 4000 DPI for slides and negatives. Scanorb's service includes the following: high resolution scanning, Kodak Digital ICE (to remove dust and blemishes) and manual processing to crop, rotate and color correct your photos.
