DIGITIZE SLIDES
Slides digitized is all done locally in our Leesburg/The Villages, Lake County, Florida office. Video Doc Productions will digitally scan slides and save them as JPEG files on a flash drive, a SSD Hard Drive or create a slideshow on DVD (additional fees apply) or burn on a CD-Rom.
All work is done in-house and never sent out!
Mom and Dad have been saving those old family slides from the 60's and 70's since you were a kid. Now is the time to have those family slides digitized before it is too late! Slides will loose their color and fade over time. The longer you wait, the greater chance that your family memories will be lost forever!

F. A. Q.
Q1) What is the difference between a DVD Slide show and a CD-Rom?
- A DVD slide show will play on your DVD player on your TV with music and special effects*.
- A CD-Rom, has individual slide images saved as a JPEG File. You have to use a computer to view each slide and change them manually yourself.
- CD-Rom will not have music or special effects. A CD-Rom is just a storage device.
- Ask about our SSD Solid State Hard Drive.

Approximately 500 - 800 images appearing on screen for 10 seconds each.
Q3) What will I get back?When your transfer is completed, all of your slides will be returned along with any boxes
in which they were stored. Your transfer will be on a DVD-R for slide shows and a CD-Rom disc for JPEG Files.

Yes, keep the titles short and easy to read. We suggest only 4 lines of text. (Additional Fees)

Q6) Will my DVD play on my DVD player?
DVD-R disks are the most compatible DVD available. Not all DVD players will play these new type of discs. Your DVD player MUST be compatible with DVD-R. 99% of DVD players manufactured in the past two years will play your DVD transfer. Please check your DVD player manual for compatibility or contact the manufacturer. Older DVD players and cheaper DVDs may not play these type of discs.
