How long
will for you to complete my job? Our "Standby rate" transfers
will take from 1 to 2
weeks. Our "Priority rate" transfers are completed in 1 to 2
days (add $50/hr).
What level of color correction
do you offer? All transfers we do benefit from our
DaVinci Color Corrector. A simple "Onelight" transfer will generally
run 1.25 to 1.5 times
the running time of the film. A "Bestlight" transfer will take
1.5 to 2 times running time.
"Scene-to-scene" transfers require 3-5 times running time. For
example, if you have 2
hours of film, expect to have between 3 - 3.5 hours for a Bestlight transfer.

Should I send my unprocessed
film to CinePost? It is always important to contact
us before shipping unprocessed film. CinePost reps some of the best labs
in the United
States. Unprocessed film should be sent directly to the lab for processing.
Please
contact our film processing sales representative for the shipping address
of a Film

What formats can my film
be transferred to? CinePost offers a variety of different
formats. We support: BetaSP, Digi-BETA, MiniDV, DVCam, and DVD. Direct
recording to
hard disc is available in SD & HD, both AVI & MOV!.
What is the difference between
a DVD-Data disc and a DVD-One off? A DVD-Data
contains uncompressed AVI files which can be read by a computer or an
editing
system. Only 20 minutes of DV video will fit on a DVD-Data disc. A DVD-One
off is
compatible with DVD players. Up to 80 minutes of MPEG-2 video fits nicely
on a
one-off DVD.
What type of equipment is
used in the film transfers? CinePost's Telecine Suite
centers around the versatile Rank Turbo. Our Rank is fitted with a very
rare Full Aperture
35mm and Super 16mm WetGate system. CinePost also has a remarkable proprietary
Regular and Super 8mm 'WetSystem' telecine process which assures stunning
