3D photo material can be supplied in different formats:

  • Digital stereo pair, seperate or joined pair.
  • On stereo slide (seperate or joined pair).
  • On stereo card (1900)
  • On stereo glass plate (1910)
  • On stereo daguere (1850)

If the image is not digitalized, we can process that for you or you can do it at your organisation. Recommended scan settings:

  • 35 mm. slide; 4000 dpi.
  • stereo card (1900); 800 dpi, stereo print 40x40 (1920); 1200 dpi
  • stereo glass plate (1910); 2000-2700 dpi.
  • stereo daguereotype; 2000-2700 dpi.

We can do the scanning for you. Because the format of the content comes in different shapes, the scanning is process is done by hand, causing the cost a little higher than automated scanning companies.
Regardless of the format, the costs are:

  • 2 Euro a piece.
  • Result on CD-DVD or through the internet: 5 Euro.

After scanning, or the raw digitally photographed material, the image should be aligned and cropped 3D correctly. This also solves height, rotation and magnification differences between left and righ image.

  • 3D correct mounting and cropping: 5 Euro. 

Antique images often show damage as result of handling; scratches, cracks and finger prints. Time also causes the image to fade. Old development techniques could cause one side to show developping errors, exposure differences between left and right as well as the damage. Not even talking about dust and spots all over the image. 
It depends on the situation with what purpose you want to present the image; is it about the scene on the image or is it about old fashioned photo techniques?
The first option would allow to improve the image as much as possible to reveal as much detail and beauty of the image for the audience but keeping its original apearance as much as possible.
The second option is to keep the apearance of the image as equal as possible to the original image media, including colour apearance and damage.
Both options are a considderation for you to take before doing any image processing.

  • Light retouch, adjust levels, removing the worst scratches and spots: 12,50 Euro.

We can add text in the image. We would consult about how it should apear. In 3D we would keep the depth level of the text to neutral / deviation 0. 

  • Adding text under the image: 5 Euro.
