We use only professional equipment – and do not take shortcuts in our transfers

The 8mm film transfer process does not happen automatically -- as many people assume. Our film transfers are professionally monitored, at all times, in order to obtain the best possible result. The transfer operator continually adjusts the light and makes any necessary adjustments rapidly.

We achieve superb results on our Super 8 and 8mm film transfers, and 35mm slide transfers

- All films are meticulously and professionally hand-cleaned (unless otherwise specified by our customer.)

- Initial manual color correction (automated with manual override) is performed on transfers.

- A secondary manual color restoration is optional.

- Image focused from center all the way to the four corners so that it's free of vignetting and hot-spot effects

- Steady and flicker-free images on all our transfers of Super-8 and Normal-8 films.

- We also offer High Definition transfers onto Blu-ray (if customer selects that option.)

Marco Hobi, since 2006 the CEO of FilmFix.ch, primarily responsible for your film transfers and the contact person for your technical questions or information.

We are a small company comprised of a husband and wife team. The two of us, personally, care for your film, tape or slide transfer - from beginning to end. Our customers appreciate the individualized attention we give, and they continually let us know how much they value it. We are confident most large companies cannot give you the same amount of care and attention -- therein lies our reward!

The FilmFix team proudly considers itself a foreigner-friendly company and does business in both the U.S. and Switzerland -- where we, Nathaniel and Laura, started our treasured FilmFix.ch company in 2005.
