WHAT IS A JPEG? JPEGs use smart compression to make file sizes smaller. This compression is heavier in color than clarity, making it perfect for consumer and general viewing.
WHAT IS A TIFF? TIFFs are lossless compression files . Resulting in high quality large file images. When a TIFF image is edited and saved, no loss of data occurs, making this format perfect for publication and archives.
WHAT IS RAW? RAW files are uncompressed and unprocessed image data. The scanned images contain all the information from the analogue originals that our scanners were able to capture. This includes the data of your scanner's infrared channel.
STANDARD FORMAT FILM TYPES: 35mm Slides, 35mm Half Frame, 35mm Negative Strips, 35mm Half Frame Negative Strips,
