We are beginning an image digitizing project on Colorado architecture and are in the midst of deciding which route to go on scanning: in-house versus out-labbing the images to a production house.One of our program directors received some free film in the mail from Seattle Filmworks and was impressed with its results and cost. Apparently they give you a slide, an internegative, and now a digital version of each image as well for about $8.00 processing cost.
My own memory of Seattle Filmworks from the past is that the image quality and archival quality was generally poor. But I admit I haven't tried them in many years. I plan to test the film myself, but would appreciate any feedback members of the imaging community could give me on their own experiences with Seattle Filmworks. Any comments specifically directed to their digital image quality would be greatly appreciated, in addition to the quality of the slides and negatives.
Sincerely,
