Ask HN: Best way to digitize old family photos and slides at home
5 by stollercyrus | 1 comments on Hacker News.
Hi HN, With the growing number of wildfires in California, I've been thinking about the best ways to digitize old family photos and slides. I imagine there are a number of services that you could send boxes of photos, but since I'm at home anyway, I figure this may be a good project to tackle. I'm curious if you have recommendations for the best ways to do this. In particular: - What is the best way to scan photos that are laminated in photo albums? - What are some good tools for digitizing old slides? - What is the best way to efficiently load photos for digitizing? I'm sure there are plenty of other questions I should be asking, so if any of you have done this already, I'd love to learn from you experience.
