Slide Scanned with a Nikon CoolScan 5000ED & Digital ICE Technologybrings pictures back to life!
My dad is an awesome man and I have inherited many of his talents and interests. A couple of those are his love and curiosity of how things work, troubleshooting and fixing stuff including computers. Another is the love of photography.
My dad was in the navy in World War II and he was a radar repair technician, and because his equipment was always in good working order, he had a lot of free time on his hands. So he took a camera and recorded life on his ship. He even created a darkroom on the ship, in a spare room. Needless to say, we have a lot of photos in the Aziz archive!
I remember as a kid in the 60’s dragging out the old screen with the sparkle finish, and the sound of the ziiiiiip when the screen rolled up and connected to the hook on the top. Then there was the projector, when it worked. You had to test to make sure the bulb was working, and heaven forbid if you moved the projector when it was hot, there goes another bulb! How about the stuck slides and the shots that showed upside down or sideways on the screen?
It is one of those memories I love, but what a pain in the neck it always was. Unfortunately, no one in my family has seen most of those slides for 20 or more years.
This past year, I undertook the project of scanning in 2,000 of my father’s slides taken from 1958 to around 1978. I also scanned in another several hundred of slides I took in the 80’s & 90’s.
I purchased a professional quality Nikon Coolscan 5000ED to do this project, with the intention of perfecting the process, and then offering the service to others who don’t have the equipment or time to do this.
I am now offering 35mm slide scanning services, and the price is very reasonable, and the quality is super high. I have added a page to my website explaining the services, the prices and I answer a lot of the questions you might have.
