Remember theses?

Well they are new to me actually. I started shooting slide film after I bought a digital camera. Go figure. The camera is a Canon Elan 7NE and the slides you see are Fuji Velvia 100.

Sorry for the sloppy Photoshop edit. I also forgot to adjust my camera's white balance, these slides were sitting on my lightbox and should not appear with a yellow cast.

Trying to get the detail to remain on the white surface of the slides with a strong backlight from the lightbox and adding fill flash so you could read the text on the slide turned out to be a bigger bite than what I could handle tonight.

So I am sleepy and didn't want to be perfect with Photoshop, I am not that knowledgeable anyway, so here it is and sometimes you just get what you pay for. :p

The EXIF data was lost since I extracted this image from the one with the yellow background and copied it into a new file with a white background. SS = 1/320, f = 4.0 with flash


other sizes: small medium original auto

Yes, I remember, but I would not go back to film for anything!:http://www.pbase.com/listorama/film_to_digital .

I couldn't go back, I still have a huge backlog of slides which I am planning to scan - no chance while Im doing a PaD !
