Scanner and slides

My next-door neighbour lent me his slide scanner just after Christmas, this guy seems to have everything in the line of camera equipment ect. He is also clued up on computers and has helped me out in many pedicures situation. Well to cut the story short we got round to talking about Digital and analog cameras, (I’ve still got my old Canon A1 analog camera) I told him that I have quiet a lot of slides and I would like one day to put the best ones on to a DVD but one needs a good scanner to make a good job of it. Bingo!


The process is very slow, takes about one to two minutes for each slide but the results are good
3600 pixel / inch. The photo is of me in the Swiss mountains 1991. The Grasshopper was taken on our holidays in Austria 1989. I am hoping to make an interesting slide show with some old slides and some new digital photos on a DVD for my family in New Zealand. What with all of my other activities the project probable will take me around six months to complete.

Take care out there were ever you are Tschüss

Just a thought; The time to repair the roof is when the Sun is shining.

Maybe part of your project would be to share some of these great photos while you are working on the project. I like the shot of the grasshopper. Looking forward to it. I have rebuilding the software and operating system on Mikes comuter over the last two days. How someone can get in such a mess in beyond me.
