I'm toying around with the idea of digitizing a bunch of old pictures on the cheap and as fast as I can.

This is the result of my first test. It took about 5 minutes, which is way too long. I want to get it down to around 30 seconds per image.

I took the old 110 negative and held it up against a window pane that I had just cleaned. On the storm window outside the window pane, I had taped a sheet of white paper to diffuse the light. Camera with a macro lens was on a tripod. I hand held the negative against the window and took the shot. Then I opened the file in the GIMP and selected the color from the orange border of the negative, pasted that color into a new overlay layer, inverted it, and merged the layers down. Inverted the entire image, and auto equalized the colors and saved the file.

If I knew anything about how to make scripts for the GIMP, I could merge those several steps into one click. Ideally I would have a tool where you click on the orange border, and the color of the image is automatically adjusted.

Anyway, this is my first test. Remember that this is 110 film. About the size of a fingernail. Much smaller than 35mm film, and poor quality. But these old pictures are priceless.

Full sized image (reduced) and a detail at maximum resolution.

I guess you don't have prints of these pictures, only the negatives?

My HP Scanjet has an attachment that holds slides or negatives for scanning. Even that's too slow.

Nice family, you should warn them about that pervert with the hood, sneaking up on them.
