Jack Reznicki |Camera Scanning Your Archives

The Westchester Photographic Society presents Jack Reznicki, A Canon Explorer of Light

Easily and Quickly Converting Negative Files to Positive Files

Is your spouse giving you dirty looks over those boxes and talking about, oh my goodness, downsizing? Well, scanning would work, but I’d need another lifetime to do all that scanning. Also, scanning seems to pull out every scratch and blemish in the negative or slide. This presentation will show you my workflow on how I’ve been doing camera scans, using a camera, a soft light source consisting of a simple viewing box, and some easy actions in either Photoshop and Lightroom (downloadable actions will be made available) to quickly process my negative files into positive files.

This event is open to the public. You must be 18 years of age or older to attend.
