Scanning your old prints, negatives and transparencies

- digitise your archive of old prints, negatives and transparencies using different methods including using flat-bed scanners, a film scanner or using an SLR camera.
- know which method of scanning is the best one for the job
- scan to the optimum size.
What students have achieved on the course:
“Mission accomplished. I learnt all I needed to do what I want to do and deepened my understanding of the digital aspects of photography.!”
“I have a much better idea of how to sort out and archive all my favourite print and negatives. Very pleased.”
I have achieved what I needed to achieve to scan my prints, negatives and slides and in fact much more than I anticipated. I have also learnt how to scan my pictures this winter.”

Please bring a selection of old prints, negatives and transparencies to the first session which we will use to scan. To take your scans home it would be useful to bring a memory stick (or portable hard drive – please note PC-formatted hard drives can be read by Apple Mac computers, but not written to.) CDs/DVDs are available.
