Digitisation – Nichol Systems

We’ve all been there – you want to view your old holiday footage, to relive those treasured memories, and all you’ve got to do is dig out the old camcorder and/or the VCR, find the attachment cables, charge up the batteries, only to find that your modern TV doesn’t have the right connectors anymore! Preserving your treasured memories doesn’t have to be this way – we offer digitisation for a wide selection of tape and disc formats, and are able to provide transfers to DVD, USB or direct download.

We are able to process the following media at this time:

VHS (Including VHS-C)
Betamax
8mm Camcorder Tapes
Digital8/Hi8
MiniDV
CD/DVD
Cassette Tapes

Not only that, but we’re happy to announce we now accept shipped media! Now all you have to do is fill out the form attached below, pop a note with your name and email address in with your tapes or discs, and post them to us at:

Nichol Systems
The Beacon
Anick Road
Hexham
Northumberland
NE46 4TU

We’ll then get in touch once we’ve received them, and quote you the cost, at which point they’ll enter a queue for processing. If you’d like a quote before posting your items, please email oliver@nichol.systems including the tape format and the number of tapes (if you’re unsure, a photo will always work!)
