Digital Bird-photography, Part 2: Film and Scanners.

["michael hunter" <>]

Robert,
           Re scanning slides.
           Last week I was talking to a surgeon who needed high resolution
digital copies of a whole series of slides taken over many years. He and his
photographic dept experimented and found that putting the slides over three
or four lens spacers with the glass removed and a sheet of plastic over the
end, held up to a bright light, even daylight, produced better quality
images than scanners, more rapidly, and much cheaper. Took some trial and
error.
                                  Cheers
                                          Michael
