    Chicago Transfer Services are the best!
    Impeccable service, quality, and perfection. Mike was able to retrieve memories from damaged 8mm reels for me and transfer a reel-to-reel tape I found in my attic. It turns out it was me at 3 years old and that completely blew me away. Our wedding video that Mike filmed in 1981 was re/edited and preserved on flash drive, every bit of this work is priceless. Mike's vast knowledge, expertise, and outstanding work come from decades of experience. He has preserved a lifetime of memories and joy for me and my family, and for that we are truly grateful. Fast, reliable, and professional service, thank you, Mike, and thank you to Chicago...read full review

    Took some negatives to Chicago Transfer that were over 75 years old. These were non standard sizes based on the day. Mike took these and turned them into fantastic images with great clarity and cleaned them up. Dropped them off on a Friday evening and received converted 45 images the next day. Cannot say enough about what happened and the quality. I will now be able to distribute some of these at a family reunion in about a week. I will be using this company from now on as my wife and I consolidate our family's 35 years of being together. Do not use anyone else, as we have leR ed the hard way. Next up some videos and 8 mm camera stuff from the 90's. Looking forward to...read full review
