All film transfer orders are shipped via US Post Office and have shipping insurance and tracking number. I have never had any shipping damage on a film order due to careful packaging.

Local buyer may not pickup/drop off film.

Doing a good job matters to me. Attention to detail is what I do.

You will value having the films transferred to MP4 and have peace of mind it is done professionally.

Your film must be clean and in excellent condition. No moldy (looks like white chaulk) films.
No broken or warped films. No "vinegar-smell" films. No sprocket damaged films (feel it with your fingers - no tattered or sharp bumps. No thanks to films stored in rusty metal cans.

Shipping to USA Address? YES
Local Pickup (Illinois USA)? NO

Sincerely,
Dr Virago Pete

This ebay listing is NOT for rush orders. Rush shipping is not included.

No Just-in-Time-For-The-Holidays orders - order with plenty of time ahead.

This ebay listing is for the budget-minded person who is not in a hurry.

I do high quality work. Your kindness and patience is appreciated. High quality work takes time to do.

I copy MP4 files to buyer-provided-storage-device. Must be sent in brand new sealed retail package to prevent virus.

Approximately 120mb to 250mb per 50ft in full HD quality. The state-of-the-art equipment I use will make 1080p resolution file for you.

_________________________________________________________________________________________ 

You get 1080p resolution file.

4:3 aspect ratio means full screen. No vintage home movies were widescreen.

Off color films will remain off color. Films fade over time. Some purplish some reddish as blue red green gets off color individual rates for each color. Blame this on film not the seller. Seller can only photograph each from "as it is" now in its present condition. 

Files are modifyable by buyer as industry standard MP4 format. But no software is included. Make sure you backup my originals first before you tinker with files for editing and color tweaking. Its never going to be perfect due to color shift and poor camera setting. Blame the film and photographer not the seller. Seller can only provide file as the film is in its present condition. As it is today in its current condition.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

I use standalone frame-by-frame scanners and no PC/Mac is used in the process. I cannot provide individual frames.

Im not responsible for "forgot to remove the lens cap" films all black or discolored or overly dark or overly light. Some films are all red - as the recording cartridge mistakenly set indoor/outdoor film type incorrectly for actual use. I can ONLY do my best.

No refunds for poor photography sorry.

Be kind in feedback please as I will do my best.

LED backlit evenly lighted frames. Excells at poor photography and poor exposure of film.

Overly bright or too dark films are no problem.

My scanning equipment is gentle on films.

Film must be in good to excellent condition.
