Important Information

  • We are one of the only UK specialist in APS Film Scanning.

  • We can only scan an APS film that have been previously processed i.e. you have seen photos from it before. We assume that all films sent to us have previously been processed.
  • We can scan negative, positive, or monochrome (B+W) APS film which has previous been processed.
  • Our scanners are high quality Film Scanners specially dedicated for APS film scanning and not cheap domestic units that many of our competitors use that may damage your film.
  • We can scan any size roll (15,25 or 40) at one fixed price.
  • Our scanners automatically read the DX code from film, giving the correct frame number and colour correction to each image. Please note, there is no scanner on the market to retrieve additional data such as date of photo from an APS film.
  • Cleaning brushes remove static and dust before film is scanned. Digital ICE™ Technology accurately identifies any other surface defects on film and automatically removes them during scanning processes.
  • Scanning capabilities at multiple resolutions gives Mr Scan the flexibility to meet the most demanding output requirements. The patented high-speed scanning technology and efficient workflow management software make our service an excellent choice!
  • Old analogue images up-scaled to great HD Digital images.
