New Year Slide
« Previous Main Next »

My New Years resolution is to organize and digitize about 2000 slides from the 1970's.
Its a REAL job.
I plan on displaying the slides on a screen then photographing each one.

If you have a bunch of negatives/slides that you want scanned, I would suggest scancafe.com . Here is a review about them http://twipphoto.com/archives/323 . They will scan slides at 3000DPI and remove dust and scratches for $o.29, And they use Nikon 5000ED & 9000ED scanners. I have only heard great things from them. I would say that you should pop the slides in a projector, mark the ones that you want scanned and send them off. Way better quality than just taking a picture of the projected image.

That will be such a mammoth undertaking, Pieter, but also a very rewarding one. I look forward to seing the results.
Love this collage, superbly presented.

Hello Pier,
I have about 1500 slides ... built up from the 70ties to 3 years ago. I already organised it, but it was a hell of a job (in Dutc: a gigaklus). I wish you success!
