What customers say
Absolutely top notch service and the results are second to none! 100% my go-to for film processing and scanning whenever I shoot super8 or 16mm. Prices are some of the cheapest I've seen too.
I’ve used a bunch of labs for Super 8 and 16mm services over the years and The Negative Space is by far the best. I’ve sent them thousands of feet of film over the last four years and every single time the quality of scans are amazing, the communication fast, and customer service is incredible.
BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! Nicki and the team at Negative Space were so accommodating and communicative throughout the entire process. Every step felt easy and well explained. Since this was my first time working with Super 8 film, I originally thought I could send it directly to Kodak.
I've been sending my Super 8 footage to Nicki for digital scanning for over a year now and she never disappoints. Always such a quick turn around with the best quality at a price that's more affordable than a lot of other places. I would recommend her to anyone who's getting into Super 8.
