Description

FilmLab is the best app for viewing and digitizing film negatives. FilmLab lets you view negatives as positives, capture scans to save and share, and convert high resolution images from scanners and digital cameras.

FIlmLab is actively developed by a small team that is passionate about film photography. We believe every film image is special, and we feel a responsibility to help you get the best possible results using the equipment you have available. With that goal in mind, we've invested years of research and development to create an app that does film scanning right.

FilmLab supports scanning color negatives, black and white negatives, and color positives (slides). It supports all film formats, including 35mm, medium format, and large format. It works with a wide variety of film scanning setups (including kits sold by Negative Supply, Valoi, pixl-latr, Lomography, and Kodak). FilmLab also supports importing scans in most image formats, including camera raw files.

FILMLAB SUBSCRIPTIONS

When you install FilmLab, you'll get 12 scans per device for free. To get unlimited scanning, choose a monthly or annual subscription.

Doesn’t work

The app just doesn’t work, could barely get it to open. When I tried to refund it I was denied. Wouldn’t recommend.

Amazing!

This is such a simple idea but with this app and a light box I’ve been able to transform my work as an archivist. Now I can see all the negatives in my collection so easily with the positive colours. So much easier to identify the subject matter 😊

Could be better

It’s not a bad app just a bit clunky in places. for $9.99 though I was hoping for more.

Pros:
The automatic live view conversion of negatives is great!
There are sliders to help tweak exposure, contrast and colour.
The ability to Manually set the refresh rate to either 50hz or 60hz.
Cons:
No instructions on how to use it.
The image quality definitely relates to the quality of the light source you put under the negative. My ipad2 isn’t good enough.
No back button or menu once you have the camera open.
The crop feature is pretty rudimentary.
The final scans have always come out a little soft for me.
