By digitizing video tapes you can bring precious memories back to life. Old videos often take us back to special moments in our lives, such as family gatherings, birthdays or holidays. By digitizing these memories, you give them a new life and make it possible to look back on these special moments with loved ones. Digitizing converts analog video material, such as VHS or Betamax, into a digital format. This way you can make old film footage accessible again with modern devices.
The benefits of digitizing video tapes
Digitizing old videos offers many advantages. Not only can you bring precious memories back to life, you can also easily share the digital files with friends and family via cloud storage. Furthermore, once the images have been digitized, you can easily use them on social media. And you can edit the videos on the computer and, for example, combine them into unique compilations.
Furthermore, digital files are a lot less vulnerable than analog tapes, which can deteriorate or become damaged over time. By digitizing your memories, you ensure that they last longer and are better protected against wear and tear. And not unimportant: digitizing old video material saves physical storage space. No longer do you have to keep boxes full of video tapes, instead you can store all your valuable videos compactly on a USB stick, external hard drive or in the cloud.
The costs of digitization
The costs of digitizing vary greatly, depending on various factors. On average, prices in the Netherlands are around €15 per tire. However, the final price may be higher due to factors such as the type of tape and the length of the recordings. Rare or complex file types (such as Betamax or Video2000) are also often more expensive. In addition, additional services may incur costs. For example, you pay more for an urgent request. You also pay extra for any video editing, such as color correction, image improvement and restorations.
