Why Legacy Digital Productions
At Legacy Digital we combine superior quality at a fair price, and we’ve been doing this since 2001. We handle your media as if it were our own carefully handling it during processing. Our pricing is straightforward and all inclusive. You only pay for what we actually convert. If a reel isn’t full, you’ll only pay for the amount of film on it, and we won’t charge you for damaged reels that can’t be converted. If you are in California and want to save tax, we can use a storage media provided by you, or put your files in the cloud.
And we do it all for a fair price. We are not the cheapest, but we are the best. And this is why we are the choice of everyone from Hollywood Executives, Studios, Universities, Libraries and people just like you. When quality and final resolution of your digitized media is of peak importance, Legacy Digital is the obvious choice.
