Continuation will require scanning of
negatives which are, to say the least, disorganized.
I may not get to this task till next
winter (or the one after that)!
Another project shared with Randy
McKee and Greg Rickes is to scan the archives of our
friend Joe Corbett.
So there’s no shortage of tasks!

slides from Al’s collection

Here’s the workstation, scanner
lower right:
scans are being done with a HP Scanjet 4890 at 300dpi resolution.
This scanner scans 16 slides in one batch at user selected resolution with
Hewlett Packard software.
I used 300dpi which makes a jpg file 500-700KB each slide. Not the best, but ok
for now.
I think the Epson V500 (below) is a worthy scanner too! Around $230
