-Currently
we have most of our pictures scanned using a HP S20 Scanner. It is a very good
scanner that scans from prints, slides or negatives. We do most of our scanning
from the NEGATIVES for a number of reasons. Mostly for the Color Quality you
get from a 25 year old negative as opposed to print (see below), also when scanning
from a negative you get the FULL picture. The other reason would be that most
of the negatives are still in the processing envelopes so once you find a date
for a picture you know ALL the pictures on that roll are from the same time.
The only down fall of this that some of the older negatives are scratched
and need to be restored and have the scratches removed but I feel that the
extra quality is worth it. |

| As
you can see the Negative picture has better color, and MORE picture |

Nearly all pictures where taken
with a NIKON 35 mm camera of some sort including these models N60, 8008, FE2,
FM along with a Kodak DC210 Digital Camera and a few other miscellaneous cameras.
Most pictures taken between April 2001 and November 2004 were taken with a Canon
PowerShot Pro 90 IS 2.6 Mega Pixel Digital Camera. Pictures after May 2005 have
been taken with a Canon PowerShot S1 IS 3.2 Mega Pixel Digital Camera with 10x
Optical Zoom |
