35mm Slides with a USB Stick

35mm Slides to JPEG

Welcome to our incredible high-quality scanning service, specializing in 35mm slides. We are dedicated to providing you with exceptional results, offering high-resolution scans in JPEG format. These scans will be conveniently supplied to you on a USB memory stick, giving you the freedom to print and share them as you choose.

Curious about how we achieve such outstanding scans? Each slide undergoes individual cleaning before being meticulously scanned using a cutting-edge, low-noise 3-line CCD sensor specifically crafted for 35mm slides. The quality of this system far surpasses that of a flat-bed scanner, making it incomparable. Our vertical scanner ensures optimal image quality by scanning each slide four times at alternating angles. Furthermore, an additional pass is made using infrared light to detect and ignore dirt and dust particles on the film’s surface. This process results in cleaner and more restored images. The system also assesses the lighting and contrast of your slides, automatically adjusting its settings to compensate for under or overexposed pictures. Scanned at a true optical resolution of 4,000 dpi, our scans have an average pixel size of 5300×3500 (54mb), preserving every intricate detail.

AI-Powered Slide Scanning

We don’t just scan your 35mm slides — we transform them. Using the latest AI restoration tools, we go far beyond traditional scanning methods to deliver stunning digital images you’ll be proud to keep and share.

Once your slides are scanned and imported into Photoshop, our advanced AI tools take over:

  • Smart Noise Reduction: Our deep-learning algorithms intelligently distinguish between actual image detail and unwanted grain. The result? Clean, clear images with preserved texture and depth that traditional tools often miss.

  • AI Sharpening & Face Recovery: We enhance image sharpness and restore facial features with precision — all without adding artificial artifacts or harsh edges. Your photos retain their natural look, just with more clarity and life.

Enjoy the perfect blend of cutting-edge technology and personal service. Let us breathe new life into your slides and preserve your memories in stunning digital quality.

Bringing Memories Alive—A Truly Magical Experience What a joy to have my father’s dusty 1950s cinefilm and audio tapes, long forgotten in plastic bags, lovingly restored. Thanks to Alive Studios, his military days didn’t just play—they came alive, unfolding like a vivid time portal into the past. It was nothing short of magical. From collection to delivery, the experience was first-class. Clear updates, swift service, and an incredible final product. The USB arrived in an elegant Tiffany-style box, securely mounted and beautifully packaged. The thoughtful addition of local fudge and a handwritten note made it all the more special. This is more than a service; it's a passion for a team as eager as you are to bring history back to life. Alive Studios don't just transfer old footage—they breathe life back into your history. I felt like I experienced the past in a way I never thought possible. Highly recommended!

I had some 25 year old camcorder tapes transferred to a digital format locally and was a bit disappointed with the quality. Searched the web and found Alive Studios so thought I’d try and see if they could do an improved job. All I can say is wow!!! The quality is amazing and it’s meant we have some precious family memories to keep forever - I honestly can’t recommend them enough. Jennie and her team are so helpful and friendly and answered every question I had. The Alive Cloud is great too especially the ability to let others view the videos on their phones or whatever device they have. If you want to bring some precious memories back to life, do not hesitate to send them to Alive Studios….you won’t be disappointed!

Brilliant service, from my initial phone call. I was talked through the process. They arranged collection of my tapes, assured me when they had arrived. I was notified at each step and my tapes were returned by courier. I had 10 hours of video tape uploaded on to a USB stick. The tapes are from our wedding, honeymoon and first years of our children. Precious memories we can all enjoy for years to come. Thank you for all your care at Alive Studios 🙏

We discovered two old cine films from ~60 years ago of a family wedding and I had them transferred to USB in the original state. When I learnt about Alive Studios I decided to send them the films to see what they could do, and the difference is stark. It brought my grandparents alive and it meant I could see them again for the first time in 40 years. Playing the raw and remastered films side my side gave facial features a clarity that brought the film to life. I am delighted with the results and thoroughly recommend saving up the pennies to give the treatment to your cherished movies.

We wanted to get our wedding Super8 cinefilm from 1980 cleaned up and transferred to 4K,including the sound. Alive Studios is local to us so we thought we would entrust the task of restoring our treasured memories to them. All done and now back with us after just three weeks - very good turnaround. Absolutely delighted with the results - and the whole family love it - even my mother-in-law who saw it at the weekend ha ha. Thoroughly recommend

Terms and conditions.

General
Alive Studios is a trading name of The Good Life Studios Ltd.

Leader tape
We edit out as much unused film as possible including the leadertape at the start of each reel. Whilst we cannot remove everything without charging for a full edit, we do endeavour to remove as much unused film as possible.

How long does it take?
This is a tricky question. We receive orders from a single video/reel to a room-full, so we’d need to know what you’re sending to give a lead-time. We find we are in high demand and always have seveal weeks of work already scheduled in, so if your order is needed in a hurry, just phone and tell us what you need :)

Damage, Loss, Post & Insurance
Orders are accepted on the basis that the liability of Alive Studios for any lost or damaged material shall be limited to the replacement with an equivalent amount of new blank stock. This is due to the unavailability of General Insurance cover for work of undefined value. When returning material to you we will use the post office services or a courier for larger items. We respectfully remind customers to retain a safety copy or take out Specialist Insurance Cover where appropriate.

Film Format
Our DVDs are region-free and play in PAL. DVD’s are normally DVD-R, but we may use DVD+R or Dual-layer discs where required.

Framing and TV Cropping
In standard definition, some film types do not fit modern TV formats, so we may re-size to fit for the best viewing pleasure. You should also note that some TV set apply their own cropping to a picture as well. By agreeing to these terms, you accept this information.

Damaged Film
Whilst we don’t generally charge extra for poor/damaged/dirty film, we reserve the right to do so if we feel it is required, but will always agree it with you before starting work.
Where splices break, we repair them without charge. If a film is temperamental and doesn’t want to go through we will always try it in several machines to make sure it’s had it’s best shot at a transfer. Where sprocket holes are punctured or torn, we will still transfer the film, often with no visible problems. However, some sprocket damage prevents a steady image from being obtained, in which case we transfer the whole film, then edit out any sections which ‘jump’ or drag because of the damage. This way we keep as much film as possible, and with careful editing you don’t even notice any is missing.
information.

Dust and Hairs
We employ a very good dry-cleaning system which catches most of the dust and hairs commonly found on cine film. It is inevitable however that there will still be dust and hairs present, as it’s impossible to remove them completely with a dry-clean system. It is also common for the dust/hairs to be imbedded into the emulsion making them impossible to ‘blow’ away, so you should expect a small amount to be visible in any transfer. The demos on our website give you a very realistic example of what you can expect.

Content of film
By signing our terms you are stating that you own or have permission to copy the material provided, and indemnify Alive Studios against any action including copyright infringement. If we feel the material to be of an indecent or illegal nature we reserve the right to refuse to continue and no refund will be offered.

Mistakes/Backups
We aim to keep your film footage on our editing suite for 30 days after completion to allow us to correct mistakes, after which time all footage is deleted. You must report any problem with your order within 14 days of receipt. We will retain a backup file of your DVD/Blu-ray for 60 days after completion to allow you to order extra copies. After 60 days, you would need to return your original disc if you wanted us to duplicate it for you. Due to the instability of data storage devices, this backup service is not guaranteed, and whilst every effort is made to retain your files for these periods, we cannot be held responsible for hard-drive failure resulting in us not being able to access your job. For very important projects, we suggest you order a digital copy on a hard-drive for your own security.

Delivery/Collections
We return orders via signed delivery with royal mail, or courier. This courier demands that items delivered damaged are reported within 24 hours of receipt, so it’s essential that you contact us immediately if your parcel is damaged.

Cancellation Policy
You can cancel your order by email any time up until we begin physical work on your job.
If no work has been started, we will refund you in full (less any costs we have incurred in taking your order shown below).

Cancellation fees
If we arranged a free courier collection, you will need to pay for this at £8.50.

We will deduct £2.50 admin fee in handling the paperwork involved with a cancellation.

Refunds
