Medium format images are larger than the usual 35mm negatives and slides that are commonly used, at Mr Scan we classify any image larger than a standard 35mm image as a medium format image, this includes mounted and un-mounted film.
Medium format film takes much longer to scan than most other types of film which is reflected in our prices.

-
We strongly recommend sending medium format images in for our free trial service before bulk ordering this service. Results for this type of old film do vary with the age and condition of the original material. We will always do the best be can with the material provided.
-
We do not scan parts of film strips, each strip must be scanned in full, we scan all image as separate images.
-
We use high end CCD scanners which give great results, we do not claim to use or use drum scanners which can produce slightly better results however to scan using a drum scanner the costs are around 10 times what we charge, we give a great image at a fraction of the cost of drum scanning, most images when compared show little if any difference
-
Glass or plastic sleeves mounted – If you want the best quality scanned image it is best that we scan images without their glass or plastic sleeve protection, our scanners do scan very well with these type of mounted images however it is usually much better with it removed as there will be much less dust and focusing will be much sharper. If you wish to have your films scanned without glass/sleeves then you need to remove the glass before sending them to us, we can not remove and remount the glass/sleeves as part of our service. Any glass slides that are cracked will also need the glass removed prior to sending as this will be picked up on scanning.
-
Image order – We are sorry it is not possible to scan or keep images in any particular order. With medium format film we use multiple scanners where image order sequences are not possible. We can not guarantee any preset order.
