Photo Prints from Negatives

sara2323

I've been sent over 100 negatives from abroad and not sure where I can get them developed into prints??

I've checked with Boots and their prices are around £8 for 32 prints.
Tried the internet and they all seem to only offer digital print services.

I was wondering if anyone was aware of companies that may provide this service but not as expensive as Boots?

Thanks in advance

Have you thought about doing it yourself?

If you have a scanner, there is a way of scanning the negatives in even if you don't have a negative unit. try Googling it.

Of course you need to be running it at the highest resolution. Once in the computer you should be able to change the negatives to positive images with most regular photo editing software. I remember trying it a few years ago with limited success, but that was down to having a low resolution scanner.

I think it is something like putting the negative on the scanner glass and putting a small mirror over it to weigh it down and reflect the light back to the scanner, or using some other way to reflect the scanners light back through the negative. I am sure a good google will help with the detail

Anyway, once in the machine you can of course have the images printed out in the same way you get digital images printed out.

Don't go with Asda, the digitial images they produce are tiny, way too small to be any use for reprints.
