Smithfield Photographics
IT Services in Cairns

Smithfield Photographics has been serving the people of northern Cairns for more than 17 years. Smithfield Photographics is the local northern Cairns store that has the complete range of photographic equipment and accessories to meet all your photographic requirements. Matte photos also have a lower likelihood of sticking to glass in a frame. The matte surface does not show finger prints as much as a glossy photo does. Matte is generally recommended when the print is to be framed, for display or when people will be handling the photos often. It gives the print depth and contrast. Glossy is ideal for everday photos. All our prints are available on are available in Glossy or Matte finishes. We develop and print your color 35mm (C41) film in one hour. For a quote to restore your precious photograph, or if you have a digital file, simply bring it into our store at the Smithfield Shopping Centre, email it to us and we'll send you an obligation free restoration quote. We find that most photographs can be restored for around $25-$50. The cost of a restoration varies with the level of damage, but generally range from $10 for the removal of a few spots or blemishes to around $150 for a badly damaged photograph, particularly where the damage is a high detail area such as a persons eyes. Our staff have many years experience in bringing damaged photos back to life - so you can enjoy them for years to come. In this digital age we have the means to restore photographs and documents damaged by age, water or animals to their former glory. Sometimes treasured photographs or important documents become damaged or torn. We make a high resolution scan of your images before saving them to a DVD so that you can be sure that you can always print another copy if required. Our volume scanning service is an economical scan service for 20 or more prints. Perhaps our photo scanning service is what you need. Do you wish that you could share these memories with family and friends without the risk of losing them forever.
