|GG| cheapest way to transfer film negatives to digital photos?
wrote:
H I have about 200 film negatives. What's the cheapest way to transfer them to digital photos? Wall green/CVS charges like 8 dollars for a cd of 24 I think. That is super cheap, 200 negatives for $67. Maybe not the best but you won't find cheaper or easier if those numbers are right. It would be very tedious work to scan yourself. -- Paul Furman www.edgehill.net www.baynatives.com all google groups messages filtered due to spam |

I just scanned 410 slides on the Nikon CoolScan... took about 3 days. Negatives are fussier to do than slides (at least the way I do them) -- will take more time. Archibald |

Negatives are fussier to do than slides (at least the way I do them) Scanning negs at full resolution with ICE on takes about 8 minutes per photo on my Nikon CoolScan. So, if you have fifty 36 exposure films that's 1800 photos. Or 240 hours of scanning (and that's without any post processing, key-wording, etc). |
