Slide Transfer

What is the cost to transfer my slides?

For information regarding the pricing for Slide Transfer and the rest of our services, please refer to our Price List .

What slide formats can be transferred?

We are able to process the following slide formats: 35 mm, Super 35 mm, 35 mm Half Frame, 110, 126, 127, 127 Superslide, and 120/220 Medium; slides must be in plastic or cardboard mounts.

How many slides will fit onto one DVD or USB?

We are able to fit approximately 500 slides onto one DVD. We can only provide an estimate because image file sizes depend on the image details as images with more details will result in a larger file size. There is no size limit on a USB order. In most cases, your slides will be transferred to a single USB, but if it exceeds our USB storage capacity, you will receive additional USBs at no additional charge.
