Save your medium-formats from decay
Do you still have old large-format pictures of special moments with your family? Then you shouldn’t lose any time and have your slides scanned. Like all old media, large-formats won’t last forever. These valueable memories will decrease in quality with time.
Why you should have your large-formats scanned
- Color fadings: Fading colors are the first sign of age. Saturation and brilliance will lessen.
- Color casts: Material starts to change with time. This leads to color casts, which means that colors start to shift in a certain direction.
- Mould: Often large-formats are stored in the attic or in the cellar, where they are exposed to temperature fluctuation and and humidity. This causes mould, which attacks the slide material.
- No optimal storage conditions: At 7° degrees room temperature and a humidity of 15% large-formats have optimal storage conditions. It’s quite difficult to achieve this conditions in reality.
- No slide projector: Even if your large-formats are in a good condition, you need a working slide projector and also a suitable projection surface.
