Tutorial All About How to Properly Scan: From Equipment to Technique

A tutorial on how to properly scan your negatives – by photojournalist Cameron Knight. This is a must read for all – to better understand film scanning!

We all love film – but we’re willing to bet that only a few of us have darkrooms and ancient projectors and we can’t just show our photos to all of our friends in our living rooms! We all need to somehow scan our photos – be it through your own scanner, someone else’s scanner or some make-shift scanner (Is that even possible? Ah well, just read on!).

We give you a comprehensive guide to scanning by Cameron Knight, a photojournalist from CityBeat at Cincinnati, Ohio. He gives us information on scanning – from scanners for every budget to traditional scanning and even some alternatives to scanning.
