Your beautiful picture

Hi Jack, your beautiful photo reminded me how much I missed using film. I have a Leica M2 and M7. Can you please explain how you transfer your analogue ( negative ) to digital format on your post. Was the negative scanned by a scanner or you had the high quality print scanned into digital format.

I contemplated buying a negative scanner but was told you need to get a commercial " drum " scanner to get good results.Problem with that is the price is very expensive and buying a M9 would be cheaper.Ideally, I want to continue to use film for as long as possible if I can convert from analogue to digital
using scanner that is not to expensive. Can you please share your thoughts and how you converted your picture.Thanking you in advance.


Cheers,dreamer
