Better Pictures provides professional high quality scanning of slides and negatives to cd and dvd.
Slides and negatives can lose their colour or take on a pink or green colour cast over time. Negative and Slide scanning by Better Pictures includes colour correction to bring back the original colour.
Once your images are scanned we can create a DVD Slide Show of your images (so you can enjoy watching your images on television) or we can simply print your images as high quality photos.

Slide and Negatives scanned (Ready to print) includes:
- Dust and loose dirt removed from your slides and negatives with compressed air.
- Your original slides and negatives are scanned at high resolution.
- Minor colour, exposure, and tonal corrections are made to your scans which ensures your photos are as near to the original as possible. Its surprising how many places do not provide basic tonal and colour correction when scanning slides and negatives.
- Your scanned negatives and slides are saved to cd in jpeg format (ready to print).
