Posted by SA_Henry (265 days ago)

I'm looking for a place in HK that can scan my negatives to digital format. Any recommendations?

Well, heck - I hope this non-contentious, non-derogatory response doesn't get ZAPPED !

I would suggest that you talk to almost any one of the "1 hour" film processors - I had my film of the last lot of Fireworks transferred directly to CDROM - I'm not bothering with "prints" since I store my pix on HD & DVD disks.

Anyway, they charged me $45 for a 24 hour service turnaround with hi-definition scans. That was for about 38 pix.

By the way : I found that the film-pix were better than ones taken by me on my 5MPixel digicamera when my roll of film ran out. "Horses for courses" ?

You can take your choice as to whom you use - I'd suggest supplying one of two films first to see if you like their service - and then haggle a discounted price for larger quantities of negatives at one time.
