Drum scanning service in continental Europe (Germany, France, Italy...)

**Javier Paniagua** · 13-Oct-2023, 06:31

Good day everybody,

I´ve been doing some research in the web lately in order to find some reliable drum scan service in Europe. I´ve found some interesting choices, but I would like to know your opinion on the subject: have any of you worked recently with any laboratory or private individual who owns and operate one of these scanners? Preferably in continental Europe.

Thank you very much for your help and time. I appreciate it.

Thanks to the all the people on this forum that recommended Tim Parkin Scanning in the UK over the years. https://www.drumscanning.co.uk/author/tim-parkin/
I sent off 58 transparencies to be scanned and was so happy with the results I just sent of another 29. I'll create another post to elaborate further. My film was shipped from Canada.
All the best!!
