We can also do this work though color lab, depending on the condition
of your film may be the better choice. Color lab has one of the very
top end transfers in North America and they also do film restoration
so if the film is not in great shape then definitely...they're the way
to go. We have a very good transfer but 9.5 is only a recent edition
to our services and we're having a bit of a difficult time getting
supplies such as reels and splice tape. If you were willing to wait a
while for it then you might want to consider us. We're a good deal
less expensive.
All the best
