Clean Up Examples

How well does our clean up work?  Let's take an extreme example of a slide that has bad scratches, dust and a fingerprint.  We don't shy away from the challenges.


As you can see this image has a set of deep scratches in the upper left hand corner.  No amount of cleaning will remove them.  It is also covered in dust and there is a big finger print right in the middle.  You wont get images back from us like that.

Instead we clean them like this.



Here is a close up of the scratches and dust in the top left corner. 



Now take a look at the same area after we cleaned it up.  Look especially at the scratch at the bottom in the trees.

Not perfect, but much better.  The dust is all but gone. The scratches are deep into the emulsion of the film itself, the scratches are not removed completely, but they are minimized.  Think of the hours of work saved in Photoshop or the hundreds lost slides that can be recovered.
Now let's look at that fingerprint.
At this extreme magnification you can actually see the droplets of oil from the fingerprint ridges and the dead skin cells.

And now for the clean up.


A big improvement.

Now let's take a normal example of just some dust.  Dust is common on every slide we scan, even after cleaning with air.
Look closely at the above picture, especially at the sky.  There are no birds.  Just dust on the film.

Think you can see all of the dust specs?  Once you have found them, scroll to the image below and see how well you did.






Just for this example we covered each spec of dust with a red dot so you can see them all clearly. 
This is par for the amount of dust on most slides.


Finally we digitally remove the dust from every image and replace each spec with what should be there. Your original image.
