Book Reviews of Scanning Negatives and Slides: Digitizing Your Photographic Archives
Book Review: A good introduction to Scanning
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very nice book for learning about the basics of scanning, especially if you have a Nikon Coolscan 5000. The book is about the only place one can find a reasonably objective summary and evaluation of scanning software from Nikon, Vuescan, and Lasersoft (Silverfast). Although fairly recently released, the book is already showing its age. The long chapter on Nikon Capture is out of date with the replacement Capture NX on the market for a while now. The book also basically is current as of Photoshop CS maybe CS2. I was left with the desire for more information. Expecially in the Photoshop area. Discussions regarding the Plug ins were helpful but I was left wanting more insight into skills to wring out the best from your slides. For the money I would have like more deapth than was presented here. With the drop off of film scanner manufacturers there probably will not be many books like this in the future so enjoy it as a basic primer on scanning.
