McBain Camera: Photography and everything in between!
McBain Camera has long been known for its large inventory of cameras and photographic accessories. But as the needs of photographers have changed, the company has added numerous services to serve its customers’ growing demands. McBain’s offers a wide variety of photofinishing services to help customers share their favourite photographs with friends and family. Sensor cleaning – Digital SLR camera sensors often accumulate dust, smears and smudges on their surface and need to be periodically cleaned to ensure quality images. Sensors can be easily damaged if not cleaned by an experienced technician. Video transfers – Transfer your old movies, photographs and slides to DVD. McBain’s can convert overseas videos to North American standard and vice versa. Passport photos – Available in only five minutes. Photo restoration – Repair, retouch and restore your old photographs to their original condition. Photographic seminars and workshops – McBain Camera offers a variety of sessions on a number of photographic topics. Check www.mcbaincamera.com/ workshops for details. Metal prints – One of the fastest growing products McBain’s is now offering is prints on metal surfaces, from five-by-seven inches, up to 12-by-18 inches. The effect created by printing photos onto a piece of metal can be stunning and result in a popular form of “wall art.” Wide format prints – McBain Camera can produce high quality enlargements up to 40 inches and as long as you like, from digital files or film, in black and white or colour, printing can be done on a variety of paper surfaces such as matte, glossy, canvas, fine-art rag (great for black and white) or metallic. McBain’s can also “frame” most popular sizes as gallery wraps that look beautiful hanging on your wall. Coffee mugs, calendars and Christmas ornaments – Your photos can also be printed on a number of gift items, including coffee mugs, Christmas ornaments and calendars. A variety of styles and backgrounds are available to personalize your final creation.
