Notes
- Most jobs completed in about three days.
- My projector uses universal straight magazines, or Rondex circular ones. If you use different magazines, or don't have any, borrow mine before the job and arrange your slides in the order that you want them. (See the slide transfer considerations page for more details.)
- Slides have a different aspect ratio (width versus height) than TV screens. A decision needs to be made about how best to fit the picture (crop off the edges, or show the entire frame with black edges on two sides), particularly with portrait oriented slides. (See the slide transfer considerations page for more details.)
- Slide transfers to video aren't as good as the original media (see film transfer info page).
- Recorded DVDs won't play back in all DVD players (see DVD format info page).
- DVD recordings may need to be compiled on video tape first.
Copyrighted material cannot be reproduced without permission. That means getting permission from the holder of the copyright (those who created the works). It does not refer to asking your friend if they don't mind you copying some movie that they bought. They cannot give you permission to copy it, they don't hold the copying rights. Do not ask us to copy some copyrighted slides. We cannot do this, even if they're ones that you've bought.
