Civilian Aviation

Hi, I would like to share with you some older stuff, now that I am able to scan my negs & slides from the mid-sixties on.
Most of them are taken at Schiphol, but also other airports will come by. Because I like variety, pics will be at random, both b/w and colour.
Please enjoy!

Hi Rob,

superb!

Do you mind me asking which scanner you're using, as it's about time I bought one?

Regards

Reggie

Hi Reggie,

The scanner I am using is a second hand film scanner that I bought some 3 years ago, but I'm not sure if you can still buy one.
It is an Acer ScanWit 2720s film scanner (you need to insert in your pc the PCI SCSI card):

In combination with Photoshop CS3 and Neat Image I am trying to make the best of it.

Please note that I have to start this scanner before I start my computer.

I hope this answer is satisfactory for you.

Hi Rob,

thanks for the info.

One of the things that really sets off the images, are the age related cars and other vehicles. It dates them beautifully.

Keep 'em coming on both here and the Fighter Control posting.

Reggie

I can look at these all day!!
