Film scanning in Baltimore: common questions

How much does film scanning cost in Baltimore?
Independent lab pricing is national in shape: develop-and-scan a roll of 35mm for about $15–24, with a proof scan (1.5–2MP) cheapest, a standard 6MP scan in the middle, and a high-resolution 20–24MP scan the most. Scanning film you have already developed is priced per roll or per frame; a dedicated drum scan of a single frame can be $25–50.
Can I get old negatives or slides scanned in Baltimore?
Yes — scanning does not require developing, so a shoebox of old negatives or slides can be digitized directly. Bring what you have; a scan shop will not process undeveloped rolls, so make sure your film is already developed.
Which scanner should I ask for?
The scanner sets the look more than anything else. A Fujifilm Frontier gives smoother, warmer, contrastier files; a Noritsu gives sharper, flatter files with more editing room; a flatbed or Hasselblad Flextight handles medium and large format for big prints. If the look matters, ask which machine the lab runs before you drop off.
