FAQs
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
One thing you should check into is whether the service does the work locally or ships it out to a foreign location. Some of our competitors have US based offices, but ship your pictures and film to India, Mexico or other places. We do all our work locally, right here, onsite in Carmel, IN. Another major point you should find out is how does the service handle your pictures and film? Many companies use automated equipment to handle your precious memories, which can lead to damage when the machines jam up or have a "feeding error." We use no automated equipment for scanning-every photo and slide is handled carefully and scanned on top-rated Epson Perfection v700 flat bed scanners. In addition, every image we scan is enhanced for quality by an imaging technician in post-processing. A final thought on photo restorations. Many photo restorers charge a flat fee of $40 or more for each restoration no matter how simple or complex the work is. At Iconic John we have a fee scale based on the complexity of the restoration and because of this, we could save you a lot of money. Our prices are as low as $9.95 per restoration.
