Do you have a collection of video tapes filled with precious moments of your family history?
Are your tapes stuck at the back of a cupboard or up in the loft slowly deteriorating?
You may still have tapes from bygone years recorded on a camcorder/video camera often without the equipment to even view them anymore. Or maybe you have a VHS of a special event that you haven't seen for years & would love to watch again.
There's no better time to have them preserved for future generations.
We can digitise your VHS, VHS-C and camcorder tapes and transfer them onto DVD or USB so you can relive all those moments over & over again and easily share with family and friends.
There are lots of options available from simply copying your tapes to DVD†/USB‡, right through to a full editing service with Menu's, Chapters, Captions, etc added**.
