Stereoscopic Glass Slide Scanning | Oxford UK
Archiving and Scanning Digitisation at Oxford Duplication Centre
Old Glass Plate Negative Scanning
Stereoscopic photographic views (stereographs) were immensely popular in the United States and Europe from about the mid-1850s through the early years of the 20th century.
Stereoscopic glass slides are two images of the same scene which are presented at a slightly different angle. When viewed the two images are brought together by the effort of the human brain to create an illusion of three-dimensionality.
Our specialist machinery offer high Dmax measurement of optical density which ensures the thinner parts of film (shadows in negatives or highlights in positives) reproduces detail in the deepest of shadows. The result is high resolution digital outputs, perfect for long term preservation. Our services are highly recommended, working with museums, historical archival companies, corporations and private clients, we can cater for small units to bulk large orders in the many 1000's.
