All film and photograph scans are taken at the optimum resolution for your material. The following chart indicates what these resolutions are in pixels per inch (ppi):
| Film/Photo Format | Scan Resolution |
| 135 (35mm) | 3200 ppi |
| 110 film | 4800 ppi |
| APS | 3200 ppi |
| 126 Film | 3200 ppi |
| 127/120/220/sheet film | 3200 ppi |
| Half Plate | 2400 + 1200 ppi |
| Quarter Plate | 3200 ppi |
| Disc Film | 4800 ppi |
| Photographs | Variable according to size |
• Photograph scans vary in resolution due to the different sizes of print. Smaller prints are scanned at a higher resolution to larger ones. An indicator of print scanning resolution is that a 4x6 inch print would be scanned at 600 ppi. As most photographs are printed at a resolution of 300 ppi, this ensures that all scans are at a higher resolution than you really need.
• Film scans are set at a resolution that is higher than the grain of your film, so scanning at a higher resolution would only result in a higher file size with no more detail.
• 110 and Disc Films are inherently poor quality compared to all other formats. This is due to the diminutive size of the negatives and the basic nature of the cameras designed for these formats. We set the resolution for these films artificially high to provide you with a good file size.
• Half Plate negatives are provided in two resolutions, automatically. One file at 3200 ppi and another at 1200 ppi. This 3200 ppi version results in an extremely high resolution file that allows you to selectively crop the images while still maintaining high resolution. Scanning at higher than 3200 will not yield more detail; it will only increase the file size. The resolution of the grain in the emulsion has been exceeded already by the 3200 ppi scan.
The 1200 ppi scan will be more than sufficient to print the whole image - even to poster sizes.
