Film to digital

I recently found that scanners will now scan film negatives and slides. The results are not as good as digital camera photos but they are adequate. I spent the day scanning while I was writing. I have a ways to go. In the end my negatives will all be digital,then I can give each of my sons CDs containing pictures of our lives together.

I haven't seen some of this stuff in years.

I am using an Epson 4490 Photo scanner. I do not know how it compares with the others. I get results I can live with.

My previous scanner's software would not work with Vista and there was no upgrade available. It did a poor job of negatives. It's old.

It is amazing how technology advances in a few short years.
