What equipment and technologies does FotoBridge use to digitize photos?
We use a variety of the latest, most-advanced, professional imaging technologies and systems available today. Our image capture process utilizes Nikon scanners for slides and Kodak scanners for photo prints. Our Kodak scanners are specially modified models supported by Kodak for dedicated print photograph scanning. Our experience shows both scanning solutions provide consistently excellent scans at all available settings. We maintain our scanners daily to ensure consistent results and frequently replace scanners prior to the end of their lifetime duty cycle. Following scanning, we enhance each digital image through our “Intelligent Digital Finishing” (IDFSM) process. This process combines automated and manual techniques to resolve existing color, exposure, red-eye, highlights and contrast problems present in the original photos. IDF can often salvage poor photos and make good photos look even better (IDF does not correct for physically damaged photos).
