Digitisation and copying programs
Dear all
Before digitisation our main means of providing access to pictorial
material was through negs, transparencies and/or duplicate
photographic prints. These 'copies' or 'intermediates' have served
as, depending on your situation or viewpoint, access copies,
'preservation' back-ups, and/or duplicating copies. I'd be interested
to know how digitisation programs have affected these copying
programs. Do you still make negs, trannies and/or duplicate prints?
Or do you not? Or do you make less of them eg one neg or one tranny
where before you made 2?
I haven't seen much discussion on this issue - or have I missed it -
and would be keen to know what other people are thinking or doing.
Cheers, Sue
