Re: NARA Seattle
Hi, guys
With regards to scanning of microfilm there are of course several factors... The reason Rod is successful using a camera and photographing the reader screen is of course that the film already has been enlarged to approx A4 size on most readers by the reader optics, something that will not happen when you use for example a flatbed scanner. Another aspect here is of course time... scanning at very high resolution on standard flatbeds will always be a time consuming process. I have a reader at home, but additionally I use a Canon MS300 dedicated microfilm scanner at the local library from time to time. I have bought a SCSI card for my laptop and simply plug the reader/printer/scanner into my laptop when I am working there, the drivers and scanning software available from Canon's website. I get very nice 600 dpi scans from this unit. Regards, Andreas B
