Have some slides?!
« on: January 26, 2009, 01:21:24 pm »

I have a professional slide scanner, if you have some slides or *35mm negatives* I can scan them for you for free and e-mail the pictures to you or put them on a CD that YOU provide. Not sure how many will fit on a disk.

no just 35mm slides and negatives sorry =-( I got it because we have YEARS of slides that are just too annoying to hold up to a light.  ;D Or maybe it's because I'm a techie



LMAO How could you let this one stay a slide!

I could try scanning it with my flatbed scanner, but I can't make any promises on how it will turn out. The flatbed is just your typical photo document scanner.

Someday if you have kids that photo will be priceless!

I've got a flat bed scanner and tried to scan 35mm slides, it didn't work. I also tried some old 35mm B & W negatives and with a white sheet of paper I could get an image. I just used my photo shop software to make a "negative" out of them which really turned them into a positive. Quality sucked but at least i was able to save some very old photos that way.

Yeah that's why I chose against the flatbed scanners. This is strictly a 35mm slide scanner and 35mm negative scanner. I've tried scanning slides on the my flatbed but got the same results that you did.

I ran out of contacts, we'll have to wait.  ;D Does this mean we have to drag the kitchen table into the dining room?  >:( I'm sure I can find a ringer at goodwill.

I have an HP flatbet scanner that has a device in the lid that will do Slides & Negatives. You can scan any slide or negative but it must be backlit. Cut a hole in black construction paper the size of the negative and put it on the platen (glass). Put the negative on top over the hole. put a piece of bright white printer paper on top of that and light it with your desk lamp (experiment with distance). It will work prety good. I've used a light box I have. Note:If your scanner has a "lid open" sensor you have to defeat it
