Refurbishing old photos

[gunawan]

Any bros here have experience with refurbishing old photographs?

- Where can we go to have old photographs reprinted with more vibrant colours & detail?
- Which shop and how much?
- Possibility of DIY?

Many thanks in advance.

Reprint from what? you have the original negative??
Good negative can print good photos
Bad negative can print bad photos
No negative print no photos?

usually will scan the photos, retouch and enhance, and print to the print size you want.

Most digilab does offer such services, pro labs also offer such services, price and charge are varies..

Hey bros,

Many thanks for sharing. The photos are from a non-profit organisation. I'm helping them refurbish the old tattered photos. Will try a few shops. Not sure the condition of the photos or how badly damaged they are.

Kum xia.
