EXCELLENT Based on 449 reviews Cloe Clare2025-06-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just used supaphoto and it’s been a great quick and simple experience! Our films and video tapes were collected promptly and the team got back to us straight away when they received. We got a broken down price of what everything would cost and explained the stages of the process for us. Great price for what we sent away and very prompt on doing the job and sending stuff back. Would definitely use again and recommend to anyone looking for this service. Sue Blight2025-06-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service and very efficient too! The quality of the films is superb and have not lost any of the quality from the original. Thanks for preserving our memories! Just used Supaphoto again and the service was so good. They really understand the importance of my 'legacy' videos and treat them very carefully. They are great at identifying the most cost effective way to deliver your product and are so quick in their responses. The output? - a beautiful memory box on a stick! Suzanne Corcoran2025-06-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Emile & his team definitely deserve 5stars so helpful & a speedy Gonzales turn around they went above & beyond getting my old camcorder tapes digitalised in time for my husbands 70th surprise thanks so much 🙏 Pippa Hammond2025-06-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great quality service. Transformed two VHS tapes (including one affected by mould) to high quality digital files. Would highly recommend. Mark Witcomb2025-05-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gisela and her team took on the daunting challenge of developing a 55-yrs old cine film I’d come across (Kodak 8mm 'Kodachrome II Daylight film') which my grandfather seems to have forgotten to send off for processing back in about 1970. Supaphoto were quick to respond and helpful, explaining the process clearly including their policy of an up-front payment of £120 regardless of successfully processing the film or not. Given the work required that seems fair enough. Although the process took several months (apparently, they had to wait on some chemicals) Supaphoto kept me updated and were always quick to respond to my emails. Eventually they informed me that after several attempts they had been able to recover some images, in spite of the film being in very poor condition. It felt very strange seeing the footage for the first time after so long; like ghosts from the past! Thanks so much Supaphoto for not giving up, dealing with the issues and getting a positive result, I very grateful! Mark E Housden2025-05-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fast & efficient. Did a superb job on digitisation of 50 years old slides to be used for our Golden Wedding celebrations. We are very pleased with the result! 🥰 sue durrant2025-05-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Supaphoto copied some camcorder films onto a USB stick for me. They were very quick and professional and the quality is excellent. Laurence O'Connor2025-05-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Truly excellent service. I had an old minidisc voice recording which Supaphoto quickly converted to digital. Many thanks for the quick service :) Shona Harriss2025-05-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Personal and efficient service from the team! Will definitely be using them in the future with my Home videos. Clem Hunnisett2025-05-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service. Fast and efficient.

Most People Choose to Transfer Mini DV To MP4
Our typical video transfer service is to convert MiniDV into digital files in MP4 digital files. This has a few great advantages. Firstly it will typically play across most platforms – i.e PC,MAC, mobiles etc. Secondly you can easily share it with your family. Lastly, you can have great fun editing them if you wish.
Before you transfer your tapes to digital, you may already know that you can even upload them to your social media platforms or family tree sites as a lovely project that you can take your time over a cup of tea.
This offers you and your family the most versatility. Digital video files can be stored on a flash drive, hard drive, computer, device or in the cloud. They can also be edited, emailed, copied, uploaded and more.
You may be interested to know that the DV uses digital data. When MiniDV camcorders were first launched, it was considered to be a great leap forward – forget your vhs player and recorder.
It was relatively better quality over say Video 8 or VHSc. However, the downside is that they are prone to degradation and digital corruption which can create problems with the audio and nasty video pixelation.
The tape is also quite flimsy so gets easily damaged. So the message is clear – don’t put off your project anymore – act now to save and preserve those memories. At Supaphoto we make customer service out top priority so keep you updated every step of the way, our first step will be to see what video camera you used, then ensuring the video quality is advanced and finally (if your files are large) seeing if you have a usb cable to connect the hard drive to the screen.
