Digital Transfer Systems

I dropped our wedding videos off April 8 and was told it would be a few days for them to be digitized. I've been calling, emailing, and driving over there almost daily for the last 2 months and have not been able to get a response or find anyone in the store. I just want the videos back since they're our only copy.

Memorable did an excellent job digitizing our large video library, and then later digitizing our much larger photo library. The new Memorable App is outstanding. The service we received was also excellent. We trust and appreciate the Memorable team. Thank you!

I sent in a black and white film strip of my parents 1952 prewedding gathering in my grandparent's back yard, and the staff at Memorable were able to put the movie on a thumb drive that I could share with my siblings. It was very clear and beautiful to see. Thank you, Memorable.

DO NOT. I REPEAT. DO NOT use Memorable for any of your photo/video/film transfer needs. The software/app is horrific. You will never be able to find your photos on their site if you need them again in the future. The site is impossible to navigate. Note: if you need to download more than one photo at a time for any reason, you will be completely out of luck.

You can only download ONE PHOTO AT A TIME FROM THEIR SITE. If you get sick of paying their astronomical annual storage fee there is NO WAY you can transfer your precious memories somewhere else. This is literally the worst service available. I paid them thousands of dollars and now they basically OWN my memories. TURN BACK AND FIND ANOTHER SOURCE!

From my layperson's perspective, Memorabilia did an excellent job in providing scans of my old photos and protecting my originals. The color and detail of the scans looks great. I chose Memorabilia since they had great reviews, reasonable pricing and a professional staff. I dropped off 2000+ photos, 600+ negatives, several movie files and several oversized photos to Memorabilia for scanning. Memorabilia finished this project in a timely manner, which was about two weeks.

When the scanning was done, I received a flash drive of the scans and received my originals back in the same condition they were left at Memorabilia. I met the professionals doing the work and I was impressed with the level of sophistication they use to get the best scans. I reviewed the scans once the project was done and the scans look great. I am glad that I now have a digital scan of these items as well as the originals. The digital scan is easy to share with the family and preserve family memories.

My wife and I trusted a full seven inch reel to Memorable. They worked closely with us all the way from the initial submission, to making certain they were preparing what we wanted. Consistent communication and always willing to advise, inform, and help. The transfer of the 8 films, which were from the 1970's, no sound, resulted in a beautiful product.

We has these same films placed on VCR more than 30 years ago. There is no comparison. The quality of the digital films prepared by Memorable are superior. And, too, the VCR copies were starting to fade. We have more films we will entrust to Memorable in the near future.

Absolutely awful experience. The staff ignored me and the manager was condescending and rude. The final result of my 16 mm film was shoddy and I was unable to make out what was happening despite the high rates. I do not recommend anybody go to this awful business ever.

Working with Memorable has been a fantastic experience! I cannot say enough about the customer service and communication - I have no worries that my irreplaceable items will be mishandled or lost. So far I have used their services to transfer VHS and Super 8 film and have every intention of using them again in the future. The prices are great and the support is top notch. Highly recommend!

I just used their service on 10+ years (36 hours) of VHS and Super 8 and was very happy,

This was such a life saver! I have been wanting to save our old vhs videos for years and didn't know where to start. I saw a great promo they had during thanksgiving and thought i would give it a try. I was able to get TEN tapes converted in less an a week! Hassle free and totally worth the money. I love that they were also on a USB drive so I can upload it onto my computer for my family to see. I'll def come back again!

Found some old 8mm home movies in a box and dropped them here. They said they had some space in their schedule and managed to get them transferred in less than 24 hours! The films looked great after transfer, despite being over fifty years old. And when my parents went to pick up the DVDs, they made a point of telling me how friendly and helpful the person was who helped them out. Great all around!

The team at Memorable just helped me convert a montage and logo loop to Blu Ray for an upcoming event. They were even able to help me set up the logo so it looped continually. The work was done promptly and right the first time. Use this business without reservation, you'll be glad you did.

The best! Excellent product/service value and exceptional customer service! Simple to send in reels and can watch from An iPhone! Easy to reach them if you have any questions.

Memorable converted my 1970's super 8 films and the quality is AMAZING! The films had been in my parent basement for 40+ years, with flooding, dust, bugs & mice. I wasn't even sure if the films could be converted. The cleaned and transferred every single one to digital. The picture is clear, the color is fantastic. My siblings and I were completely amazing by the quality.

The company supplies you with a shipping label, they update the website throughout the process and from shipping date to delivery of the files it was just under two weeks. I had researched many other companies, but reviews do not lie. Memorable is a fantastic company to trust with your precious memories! Thank you Memorable!

We had a combination of old VHS, 8mm tape, VHS-C and 8mm film that we wanted to preserve but hated the idea of putting them into a box and dropping them of to be shipped across the country to a company that we had not worked with. The process could not have been smoother. We received notifications that the shipment was received, being processed and completed. We received all of the originals back with the order number on them and flash drives with the digitized copies. We were so pleased that twice as many are being sent next!

I tried Memorable after not being impressed with another company's 8mm transfers. My first step was to ask Memorable what equipment they used. Eugene, the founder, responded almost immediately and told me they use the very advanced FlashscanHD system for 8mm transfers. That fact, combined with how responsive they were--not to mention their low-priced bundles--convinced me to give them a shot.

I sent them almost 20 of our old precious 8mm family movies. About 10 days later, I was pleasantly surprised when my movies started showing up on their gomemorable.com site even before they shipped back my reels. I also like the fact that I can download the HQ versions online or share links with family. Sometimes the videos took a while to come up but eventually I could play them all, and downloading was fast.

They also let me send along a large USB hard disk onto which they put the massive uncompressed transfers so I can edit them myself in my video software. This gives me the most peace of mind knowing I have the best quality version of these precious reels, and that if I learn something new with my video software, I can go back to the original files and edit them.

I also noticed that Memorable used the correct frame rate on my 8mm transfers (16fps) whereas the other company used 29.9fps. I am delighted with the results and will be sending them our last nine reels this week. I am also going to send them two large 7 reels that the other company transferred because now I can see Memorable's FlashscanHD transfers are superior. Kudos to Eugene and his team for providing an excellent product and excellent customer service.

I dropped off a few reels of 8mm movies from the 1960s. Memorable digitized them within a few days and handed the consolidated reels back to me, along with a flash drive. So easy now to view great memories! We are very pleased and will return to Memorable for more digitizing. Thanks!

Memorable converted 4000 ft of Super 8 with sound movie film for me. Excellent Results! Turnaround time was 2 weeks. I gave my daughters flash drives with the movies since they were the stars of the movies. They loved being able to see them and themselves on their TV's anytime they wished to do so. Now the technical highlight. The real advantage over doing it myself which I was preparing to do with my projector and camcorder is that Memorable uses a sprocket-less drive system so there is no sprocket drive noise!

They also look at the film for quality of their transfer. They noted a half moon shape on some of the film images which was from when I forgot to raise the boom microphone to clear the lens. They also noted that they had redone one reel when they were not satisfied with the results. Before I started using sound film, a few of the first 3 minute reels were not sound film and they also noted that in their report to me.

My movies dated from the early to mid to late 1980's. I renamed the 15 files on the flash drive copies to reflect the dates of the original recordings so my daughters could easily select what they wanted to watch from the TV screen menu. I had checked with another major nationally advertised film transfer service last year but they couldn't handle sound film; Memorable could and they did an excellent job for me.

My experience with Memorable was outstanding. Turn around was quick and easy. I had a bunch of old super 8mm home movies from the 70's converted to 4K video files. The quality was amazing, and now the movies are preserved to pass down to my daughter. Cost was very reasonable. I will definitely use their service again and would recommend them to anyone.

I found a TREASURE and GEM in Memorable--an AMAZING company that digitizes, restores and organizes all your family home films (any format), tapes/videos (any format) and photos; ensuring your family memories can be kept up to date and safe forever. Having all our home movies on DVD and online is a dream come true. While the DVDs are priceless, having everything online in our own family site is even more so.to be able to pull up any video or photo at any time, anywhere, is too much for words.

Find your kids, parents, grandparents and more.at any age and year! Memorable makes it easy to search by key words or via a timeline to have any video clip or photo at your disposal. You also can upload all photos from your phone to your personal family site as well, anytime! Plus, there is a free Memorable app so that you can really have your entire family film/video/photo library at your fingertips at all times.

There are not enough words to tell everyone how amazing and user-friendly Memorable is; plus, owner Eugene Gekhter is so personable, knowledgeable, and most accommodating. Working with Eugene is a pleasure! One more thing: Memorable has fair pricing and runs sales all the time. This reputable company keeps all your film/photo memories at your fingertips, ensuring an opportunity to bring a smile to your face at any and every given moment.

This was a great experience. My goal was to get a box of paper photos and a bunch of old video tapes loaded into my Google Photo App. The pictures were easy to upload from the CD they came on. The videos were on DVD, and they too were easy once I tried doing it from Chrome rather than Safari. Went to the Memorable website, downloaded a dozen videos, walked away for an hour, came back and hit upload into Google Photos, and when I returned in another hour it was complete. Having all these old pictures and videos easily accessible on my phone is fantastic.

After discussing the issue with the company it seems that the problem with the tapes was at my end, so I am upgrading to 5*.

A little while ago, my first project with Memorable was to capture 8mm film and a VHS tape to electronic and discs as an introductory project with them. That went so well, this past January I brought in over 35 VHS tapes spanning 20 years of family history to capture to electronic files and Blu-Ray DVDs. They did a fantastic job in terms of helpfulness, quality of work, communication and efficiency.

I appreciate that the video files are my property and am able to edit them as I please. Not all companies allow this. They are so easy to work with and look forward to my next projects with them. I highly recommend Memorable.

I was so glad to find Memorable right here in Northbrook. With the daunting task of sorting and reviewing my parents collection from the last 80+ years it is great to have this resource. The staff is easy to talk to and answered my 1000 questions. I felt comfortable leaving my precious video in their hands. I was so excited to get my video transferred and to be able to watch it on the large screen. I am just at the beginning of this journey but confident Memorable will be a good partner in this process.

I sent my family's old super 8 filmstrip to the team at Memorable. We had it processed years ago by a local business back in the VHS days and I felt like it would be nice to reprocess it with today's technology. I was blown away by the results. I don't think that the quality was even this good coming out of the film projector. The team was great to work with and I knew that they cared about protecting and preserving my memories. I recommend this company to anyone else who has media they want to preserve.

Pixcel is the only place I go for reliable, high definition (1080p) transfers of my recently shot regular 8mm and Super 8mm film reels. They run great sales throughout the year, and I decided to use the half off the highest level of quality for 350' of film. I spent $84.00 for cleaning/lubricating, transfer and digital remastering to remove any dirt, scratches, or discoloration.

The guys in Customer Service have been great, explaining each step of the process in depth for me, and correcting frame speed for me for every reel in the Digital Restoration page, as film frames per second rates were different for different cameras in the 1960's. I also bought a year's subscription to Reflectera.com, Pixcel's new Cloud service where they load your films onto. Reflectera.com allows one to store scanned analog and new digital pictures into a time line on the cloud server.

Home movies, such as mine, which Pixcel uploads, can be saved to the hard drive of your computer also, just to make sure you don't loose them. Both services are fantastic and I would recommend the 8mm transfers to anyone with film form the 1932 introduction of the original Kodachrome on up through today's higher speed film stocks, to use Pixcel and Reflectera.com.

Call them today! Save your family home movies, only 52% of all films made from 1932 until 1960 are still in existence today. Don't wait, save what you still have for future generations in your faily. If nothing tangible is left behind, the past seems t far away.

This was really fantastic - I was able to snag a Groupon which allowed to get a vhs-dvd transfer for only $10 (usual price is $20 for a basic transfer) and their turn around time (around the holidays), they told me that it would take 2-3 days. Imagine my surprise when they emailed and called the next day telling me that it was ready. The quality was pretty decent given the price that I paid.

I could have paid more for a better quality but all I needed was a basic transfer and I appreciate having the various chapters now available. Thanks again! Great customer service makes this place 5 stars in my book.
