hi you can get special scanners that are dedicated to scanning slides in, my dad has one and along with photoshop (gimp is just as good) can really make a good job of it. if you are interested i can give you more details on the make and model my dad uses.ed. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Neil Winchurst" <barnaby@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, October 20, 2009 4:31 PM To: <list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [LUG] Old colour slidesI have been having a sort out at home and have come across a stack of old family photo slides. When I say old, some of them from more than forty years ago. I had forgotten about them. Back in those days the common way to take family photos was by using slide film. So my question, what is the best way to transfer such pictures to my computer? I do not have a scanner, but anyway, I do not think that a scanner copes very well with slides. Perhaps there are specialised types. There are also some colour prints, incidentally, but not many. I am running Kubuntu Hardy, if that is relevant.
