About the lab

We publish our rates so you can check us.

Legacy Digital Productions was founded by Scott Foster in Orange, California in 2001 and is still family owned and operated. Scott still does the work himself. This site exists to help you compare labs honestly, and that only works if the lab behind it can stand the comparison.

Work you may have seen

Alongside family collections, our transfers have been used by CBS, ABC, Disney Animation, Paramount and Sony, and the lab converted Steven Spielberg’s childhood films for the documentary Spielberg. People with every option compared labs and chose this one.

Honesty is the whole competitive position.

A comparison site run by a lab has an obvious conflict, so we resolve it the only way that works: by saying when the cheaper option is fine, by publishing the rates, and by answering the eight questions we tell you to ask. Everything else is the same discipline as any good lab: every reel logged, inspected before it runs, scanned in our own building, sent home with the files.

If you take our arithmetic to another lab and they beat us, that is the page doing its job.

Send a photo of one reel and a rough count. If the honest answer is that you should wait, or do it yourself, we will say so.
