Yes, I have copied 20 albums of 35mm photos with mine. It does a nice job, maybe 8 out of 10 for quality. You can scan as fast as you can load the photos one at a time. They feed thru very well. I had several photos of different thickness and it handled them fine. It will take 50 photos before you have to save and then start the process again. Once you get 50 loaded you can go thru them one at a time and edit them. I'd give this process an 8 out of 10 also. All in all I have been very impressed with this scanner compared to laying them one at a time on a scanner. I would have never got done doing it in this manner.
Beautiful shots. What kind of camera did you shoot these with?
Very nice! What camera and lens did you use?
What camera & lens did you use? Nice color!
Very nice. Thanks for sharing!
My first question would have to be why are you selling this? I'm still on the fence deciding between a lighter camera or a full frame Pentax.
What I've noticed is that now that my kids are nearing 40 they have all the sudden become interested in family history and pictures of ancestors. So yes they still live in "today" instead of the past, but I see that beginning to change a little as they get older. They will never become a "hoarder" like I am, but they are starting to value family heirlooms, etc. I try to name the picture with the date and subject for digital storage. I still think a photobook of the very most important family photos with labels is a very good idea.
I'm glad you brought this up because I've been slipping on my goal to make a Shutterfly book every few years of family photos. I never forget to make one when I travel, but I need to remember to make them of family. My kids will never keep a box of photos, but they might keep a book. Thanks for reminding us of the importance of family photos, that once gone are lost forever.
Another Pentaxian here. I used my K-1000 for 30 years. I used it for weddings, travel, landscape photography and pretty much everything else. It never let me down and it still works. Over 30 years I probably only tossed a dozen photos. Then when I couldn't deny digital photography any longer I got a K20D. It has also taken many awesome photos and it still works as well as it did on day one. However I am anxious to upgrade now that I can get a digital camera that handles low light better. And even though I'm not crazy about the added weight I'll probably go full-frame. And once again it will probably be a Pentax. I could put my K-1000 photos up against any pictures and I always got raving reviews. Guess that hooked me. I mostly shoot landscape photos and I also love not worrying about a little moisture. So glad to hear I'm not the only Pentaxian left out there.
I've made 15-20 Shutterfly books. I make one for every hiking season, one for all grandkids' first year, one for every person who retires from work, and one every time I travel. It is easy to use and a nice consistent quality. Use the "customize" option if you like to place the photos yourself. Save the book and then wait for the first 40-50% off sale to buy it. They run those quite often. Love it!!!
If you get tired of driving the Interstate and you are not in a hurry, take Hwy 83 south at North Platte and drive the hi-line(Hwy 23 and then 6&34) thru the small towns to Minden and visit Pioneer Village. It is a great place to visit if you like history. You could also drop down off the Interstate via Hwy 183 to Holdrege and on east to on 6/34 to Minden, for a few less small towns to drive thru. Driving the hi-line is prettier with a few hills vs the flat Interstate and has old buildings and barns to photograph. Always ask before you get off the road onto private property for photographing though. Nebraska has a lot of good lakes if you like boating, fishing, etc. Since it is relatively flat and has a lot of country roads it is a good place to do bike trips also. The people are very friendly and helpful if you get in a bind.
When you go to Rocky Mtn Natl Park be sure to drive up to Bear Lake. Go early in the morning so you can park up there and walk around the lakes. There are many photo opps there. Steamboat is also very nice. Ride the gondola up and walk around the trails. Crested Butte is nice also. Take a jeep trip into the mountains at Ouray and then drive on over to Silverton or take the north route to Telluride. Do the Central City/Blackhawk area when you are in Denver if you like to gamble. Eat at "the Plimoth" while in Denver. What a beautiful state!
