| It used to be that in order
to scan negatives, you had to place them into an adapter unit and
position the holder carefully onto the scanner glass.
There is something new, however, that makes it even easier to
scan all of your old negatives. There are some reasonably priced
new scanners on the market that are designed to make scanning
your negatives much simpler.
The Epson 3590 is one of the new scanners. It has a slot right
in the lid made just for scanning negatives. You feed the negative
into the slot, you don’t have to mess with an adapter or
even lift the lid. It could not be any easier.
• This scanner can also scan slides, photos, and the usual
things that you can think to put on your scanner.
• It can also automatically turn what you scan into a PDF
file or into an email, but it does need to be connected to your
computer.
Consider going through your photo collection to scan negatives
of meaningful old photos. It may sound like a hassle, but it will
be worthwhile for those special events. You can color restore
them, your photo prints will be the best they can be, and the
longer you wait, the worse they’ll become. Future generations
will be glad that you did!
