Photo Scanning Service
Premium Archival Printed Photo Scanning Service
Give your photos the treatment they deserve with DigMyPics Archival Photo Scanning Service. A skilled technician reviews each photo before scanning to assess the photograph and selected resolution, determining the best equipment to use to ensure a high-quality scanned photo. They then scan each photo by hand, one by one.
See Your Photos As We Scan Them
Our exclusive Real-Time Photo Scanning service allows you to see each photo as we scan it. This unique feature of our photo scanning service makes it fun for you and your family to watch your account every day as new photos become instantly available the moment we've scanned them.
Delete Unwanted Photo Scans
With our unique Don't Want, Don't Pay system, you can delete up to 20% of the scans you don't want, and you won't pay for them. We're so confident you'll be thrilled with the quality of your newly digitized photos that we guarantee your satisfaction.
DigMyPics Uses the Best Equipment for Our Photo Scanning Services
No batch photo scanning feeders, no document scanners. Those devices can scratch and dog-ear your original photos and leave digital lines and streaks on the scans they produce. We use professional-grade equipment to ensure the highest quality for your scanned photos. If you're comparing photo scanning services and see a lower price per photo, its because that company is using a sheet feeder.
Understand why sheet feeder photo scanners are bad and digmypics won't use them.
Additional Printed Photo Scanning Information
Our nearly 20 years of scanning experience have helped us perfect the photo scanning process and provide you with the best scanning quality available.
Below is some helpful information to make your photo scanning service experience as simple as possible.
Choosing a DPI
600 dpi is the recommended resolution for scanning your printed photos. The higher resolution is important when it comes to enlarging, reprinting, and editing the photos. For prints smaller than 4x6, you should consider having them scanned at 1200 dpi.
At 600 dpi, you can print up to twice the original size, and at 1200 dpi, you can print up to four times the original size. A 4x6 print scanned at 600 dpi will produce a digital photo of 2400 x 3600 pixels. For comparison, a 4K TV is 3840 x 2160 pixels.
Prints in Albums
This is a premium service, and the price is additional to the photo scanning charges. To add the photo album scanning service, first count the photos and types in the albums and add those to the cart. Then, sum those numbers and add the total to the Remove Prints From Albums option in the cart.
Separating Photos
In some cases, we are able to scan the album page and then use software to separate out the individual scanned photos without physically removing them from the album. Please remove the binding from the album and send just the loose album pages.
Removing Photos from Album
We are not always able to separate out the individual photos from the page, and in those cases, we must remove each photo from the album. We prefer that the customer remove the prints. We do not put the prints back in their album(s) but will place them in Ziploc® bags.
