We’ve finally gone full Solar here at Save Those Memories as you can imagine we are fairly power intensive so having Solar and Sigenstor batteries will help me continue to strive for the perfect digital image. I also have immediate backup should power fail, very important when heavy processing cine film! The new Baumer telecine camera with the new AI system allied to the superb Scanbox 4K Telecine machine is just better than anything I have ever seen before. So, whether it is to transfer cine film to digital files (2k+ or 4k+), or any other format such as Camcorder tape (hi8 / mini DV etc.), VHS tape, Photo or 35mm Slide. I always aim to provide the best possible service using class leading equipment. The three levels of Cine Film service are
Give me a call to talk through your needs or click on one of the three format conversion buttons for more information. I look forward to hearing from you.

Now using brand new Scanbox 4K. Your cine films saved to computer files as 2K – 2048 x 1500 or 4K – 4096 x 3000
Hi Chris,
Just wanted to say a BIG thank-you. Just watched everything and it is fantastic. I bought the camera about 45 years ago so some amazing stuff on it. Can’t wait to take them to New Zealand to show my kids and grandchildren.Many thanks and best wishes.

Hi Chris,
Received the drive and the films back this morning. Had a quick scan of the files. Look fantastic, quality is superb and much of the footage is unseen as the stock was in such a bad state that it was un-viewable on my projector. Not just memories but a snapshot of the sixties. Great! Many thanks. Will recommend.
Regards, Graeme H.
Chris,
Received the discs and I am delighted with the presentation and quality. Is it possible you could QUICKLY send me 3 more DVDs and 1 more Bluray disc in time for Friday? Please advise total cost and I’ll get back to you by return with a cheque in the post. You are welcome to add our museum company to your published list of clients. I am impressed with the quality, having seen part of the film projected on a 9.5mm projector (not the one that ripped the sprockets). The DVD is far smoother than the projected film.
Regards, Gordon
Dear Chris,
Everything received safe and intact on Saturday. I am delighted at the quality of the finished product and am staggered at how well the definition and colour have been reproduced from the cinefilms some of which were taken 50 years ago!
I have been particularly impressed by the professionalism you have shown during my dealings with you – in particular your personal interest in the films and their content in order to be able to organise them into the sequences that were necessary. Its nice to see personal interest shown as opposed to a “conveyor belt” approach to the procedure.
Many thanks, Dr. Bryan Williams
Hi Chris,
It really is refreshing to deal with someone who is thoroughly professional, efficient, helpful and courteous.
My old 1930’s black & white films are now easy to watch and enjoy. Chris has cleaned, spliced, edited and titled them in an expert way, adding appropriate music. He even personalised the cover of the DVD by selecting images from the films. Thank you Chris

Dear Chris,
Thank you SO much for the DVDs.
They are brilliant and we are all very pleased with them.
It is refreshing to deal with someone who is professional, efficient and obviously cares about what he is doing. Many thanks again,

Dear Chris,
Many many thanks for the DVDs which I received today, they’re absolutely brilliant and the quality is far superior to that which I was expecting given the age of the films. I love the music you’ve added, it’s noticeable and adds to the films without being obtrusive. The less said about the clothes we were dressed in the better! So far we’ve only watched the first disk but I’m sure the second will be as good! Thanks again, I’ll certainly recommend you if I hear of anyone else wanting the same service.

I started SaveThoseMemories in 2003! And it made me realise how old our video tapes really are. Early camcorder users will have video tapes that are well over 35 years old. Video tapes are not designed for longevity and your old camcorder tapes need to be saved to digital as soon as possible. Make this the year you save your old video tapes, whether large VHS or the smaller VHS-c, Video8, Hi-8, Digital 8, MiniDV or microMV. Camcorder tapes are falling off a cliff compared to cine film..
Cine film is one of the most wonderful visual formats ever invented. For over 100 years it has stored our memories. At heart it is still just a series of still photographs stuck together. Now you have a choice of 2K+ and 4K+ using the brilliant new Scanbox 4K I will get the very best from your precious cine film.
Saving standard 35mm and medium format slides and strips using the best scanner Nikon ever made. It is hard to believe that nothing has ever topped the Super Coolscan 9000ED. Still the only scanner ever made with Digital ICE Professional giving unparalleled dust and scratch removal. Images can be saved at up to an amazing 700MB, which means that one slide would fit on a CD-Rom!. It truly is stunning..
