We use state-of-the-art digital cameras and scanners combined with many years of digitisation experience to create images of the highest quality.
As well as digital stitching of large maps, plans and documents we also offer a digital image restoration service for beloved historical photos and glass plates so they are preserved at their best for future generations.
Stitching of large scale maps and documents
For those who wish to obtain a perfect copy of a large map, document or photograph, FSB can scan and deliver images of items up to 2m x 3m in size. We do this by capturing A1 size areas with a third overlap from the original and seamlessly stitch these digital ‘tiles’ using Photoshop. This method creates images with a large file sizes which are ideal for exhibitions, interior displays and publications. Contact us for more information
Image retouching
Many old photographs and negatives are damaged, faded, creased, broken, scratched, torn or covered in dust and dirt. Digitally removing these marks from a scanned image is a challenging and demanding professional task. The amount of time it takes varies tremendously, depending on the size and condition of the original. There is a charge of £40 per hour for retouching digital images. See examples below. Contact us for more information.
