Hi all,
This is not a large format query but you people seem to know a lot about scanning etc.
These days I shoot 35mm Provia 100F and 400x almost exclusively (love those Leica cameras!). Can anyone advise on:
1. the lifespan of a transparency? My transparencies are not mounted and are stored in archival sleeves.
2. Is a Nikon 9000 scan good enough for digitally archiving transparencies or should I be saving up to gradually pay to drum scan my better images?
3. There is a lot of (confusing) information about the optimum resolution for scanning. If I am to pay the big bucks for drum scanning, I need to know the optimal resolution/file size for 35mm?
4. When transparencies are drum-scanned are they colour/exposure corrected or is this an additional service?
5. Are cds sufficient/stable for archival storage? Best brands? Other options?
Apologies if these questions are quite basic.
