Hello Folks, looking for some advice please.
I have acquired these film reels from my mother. Some of these are up to 35 years-old and naturally I'm very keen to crack these open and find out what's inside. As can you see, I have taken one of the 110? reels (sorry, I'm not good at identifying sizes) to snappy snaps, who processed it into the film roll you can see to the left. They have said the the bigger reels have to be sent away to be processed.
I don't know what to do from here. I'm quite happy for them to convert these into film, but the cost of converting them into a digital format is going to run at £20 per reel. My scanner does not have the facility to scan negatives and the film reel is too small for me to work with; therefore I am looking for a cost-effective way to go about this? Maybe a film/negative scanner I can buy in which (anything from about £80-100) to do this myself, and what sort of results I can expect with image quality, where the images were captured such a long time ago.
Thanks you anyone who can help, sorry if all this seems obvious but I'm a complete duffer at this sort of thing.
