Customer images from DiaDirekt - samples

Sometimes we get the question if it really is necessary to have such a high resolution as we offer in our scanning service. Should it not be enough with Full HD to watch the digital photos on a TV?

To us the answer is simple. The reason we deliver with such a high resolution and image quality is that when your photos are scanned by us it is “the last step” before you let go of the old originals and keep them in a digital format instead. If we were to transfer your images with a lower resolution some of the image quality would be lost forever.

To simplify for you to judge the image quality we produce, we have collected a few samples of actual customer images.

• We have not selected the images for being artistic or specifically well composed, but because they represent many of the ordinary photos that we scan for our customers.
• All of the samples are from STANDARD-orders where we have not made any specific adjustment or post production enhancements compared to our regular service.

Please remember...

• The image files are large and can take a long time to download to your computer.
• We recommend you to right click and save the images before viewing them.
• Take some time to zoom in and check out the different details!
