Photo scanning services turn big screen TVs into digital scrapbooks.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/21/2009 -- Gone are the days of heading to someone's home to see vacation pictures, only to be forced to sit through a presentation of slides shown on an old bed sheet, yawning through breaks as the host fiddles with the slide projector, and cringing when a slide turns out to be upside down in the presentation.

Today, that big screen TV sitting in your living room is the new media for viewing and displaying pictures. Slide and photo scanning services are taking boxes of old photographs and changing them into entertaining and informative DVD presentations.

Industry experts anticipate the big screen to be the newest way to display photos. There are several reasons cited for this. First, a photo DVD takes up far less room than a scrapbook or photo album. Second, the world is becoming digital-media centered, and a photo slideshow DVD fits into that world perfectly. Finally, photo DVDs, depending on the format, are easily and affordably copied, giving the owner a simple way to backup the images and preserve them for posterity.

Slideshows of scanned photos are increasing in popularity with the advent of technology like Apple's iPhoto and iDVD, which allow individuals to create their own picture DVDs at home. According to Apple, the DVDs produced with this programming are designed for display on the big screen and are compatible with most, if not all, DVD players. Experts indicate one problem with this technology, however, and that is the low resolution of most home scanners. Home scanned images simply look scanned and grainy when projected on the big screen.

This is where photo scanning services help. Unlike the home user, these companies have access to high quality digital scanners that can take an old photograph or film picture and scan it at a high resolution. These can then be turned into DVD slideshow presentations that will look great on any big screen TV. Many have high enough of a resolution that the images can easily be projected onto projector screens for public events, like weddings and graduations, where even the big screen TV is too small. Also, bulk scanning capabilities take the hassle and time crunch out of creating a photo DVD.

Spokespeople for BritePix, a leading photo scanning service, cautioned consumers to read the fine print when shopping for these services. Some companies sell photo CDs that can play on most DVD players, but not all. For instance, Kodak offers a photo CD that can play on any DVD player that has the Kodak logo. If yours doesn't, you might not be able to see the images.

Services like photo scanning to DVD are expected to revolutionize the photography industry, blurring the line between photography and cinematography, as any image can now be turned into a quality DVD to be shown on any screen, no matter how big. So the next time you are asked to go to someone's house to look at vacation pictures, do so with excitement, because chances are you will be watching an entertaining and relaxing movie slideshow on the big screen.

With photo scanning services any picture can be a player in today's digitally driven world.

Miami, FL -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/16/2009 -- When digital photography first entered the photography and imaging world, most photographers and graphics designers indicated their skepticism about the technology. Early digital cameras did not capture quality images, and the professionals stuck with film. In the past ten years, this trend has done a complete turn.

Today, industry experts indicate that the vast majority of professional image creators, be they photographers or graphic designers, work with digital media. In a survey of professional photographers conducted by Kodak in 2003, three out of five indicated they were now using primarily digital photography to create new business opportunities, and this number has only increased over time. These numbers indicate that the digital imagery industry is here to stay.

Yet there are millions of amazing images out there that were captured on traditional media. The biggest challenge to photographers and graphic designers that wanted to change a traditional photo to a digital one was doing so quickly and without sacrificing quality, particularly when dealing with a large quantity of images. This is where the digital photo scanning services have begun to impact the digital imaging industry.

With a photo scanning service, the graphic designer who wishes to use an old photograph or image to create his new design can have a photographic quality digital file that often looks better than the original. Bulk photo scanning service make it possible to change hundreds of photos into quality digital files in just a few days, without hassle or much cost. This technology is bringing new life to old images, revitalizing the digital imaging industry.

Photo scanning services have also impacted the digital imaging industry by giving graphic artists the chance to make a paper or film image into part of a viral marketing campaign. A paper or film image can only be seen in one location at a time. A photo scanning service allows that image to be sent across the globe in minutes. The digital file can be copied, emailed, posted online or used in any viral marketing strategy, increasing its impact almost instantly.

Industry experts indicate that the rise of portable digital devices like the iPhone, more Internet connections in homes across the world and digital photo labs in retail stores is driving the demand to digitize traditional photographs.

To date, trillions of analog photos have been digitized using professional photo scanning services, according to the Photo Preservation Center, a leading organization dedicated to teaching people about the ways to preserve their photos by transferring them to a digital imaging format.

Experts estimate there are still 3.5 trillion paper or film photos still out there that have not been digitized. With those huge numbers and the fact that we now live in an all-digital computerized world, where we literally have the Internet at our fingertips at all time, the future for digital imaging services is bright, and their service will continue to impact the world of digital imaging.
