For his day-to-day operations, David utilizes the latest in digital darkroom technology, including Adobe PhotoShop software, a Microtek ArtixScan 4000tf high-resolution film/slide scanner and an Epson Stylus Pro 4800 archival printer.

David also employs these assets as digital darkroom services to others.  Jobs are quoted on a case-by-case basis, so please contact David for specific details.

HIGH-RESOLUTION SCANNING

The Microtek ArtixScan 4000tf scanner is capable of producing a 4,000 ppi (pixels per inch) scan of any 35mm film negative or slide.  File size from such a scan is approximately 50 megabytes, allowing large format prints (in most cases, depending on the quality of the original image). 

PHOTO RESTORATION

Do you have an old photograph that is showing its age but do not have the original negative to make another print?

Using his flatbed scanner, David can produce a digital copy of the original print and digitally "repair" the damages to the print using Adobe PhotoShop software, creating a "digital negative" that can be used to make high-quality reprints.  Color to black-and-white (or sepia tone) conversion is also possible.

LARGE-FORMAT ARCHIVAL PRINTING

The Epson Stylus Pro 4800 printer is capable of producing archival prints up to 17" wide.  Using the Ultrachrome K3 ink technology and high-grade papers, print life is estimated at approximately 85 years.
