Digital cameras are ten-a-penny these days, and we now have even more pictures to show family and friends. Imagine their joy as you subject them to three times as many holiday snaps.

Digital photography makes sending your snaps around the globe a cinch via email and you can even print multiple copies yourself. Bag yourself a digital photo frame and you can even show off your digital snaps the way you used to with old-fashioned prints. But how about those old pre-digital photos? Wouldn't it be nice to get all those into digital format too, so you can show them off in full digital effect?

Well, here's the solution: a digital film scanner that can take 35mm slides or negatives and easily convert them into digital files. Perfect for anyone with older relatives who have family photos they want to share in contemporary fashion, professional photographers who grew up with film but now want to put their best work online, or archivists who have film collections that are decaying due to the ravages of time.

This handy gadget can bring old film and slides right up to date by scanning them at high resolutions and then converting them to jpegs, or a range of other handy dandy digital formats.

This idiot-proof gadget scans 35mm negatives or slides and converts them into digital pics. You can then easily edit, crop and resize them using the included software ready for printing, archiving or just viewing on your computer or TV screen. Simply connect the scanner to your PC using the USB cable supplied, load the free software and let the scanning begin.

Using a 5 mega pixel CMOS sensor with 3,600 dpi interpolation and 48-bit colour scan, the scanner provides super sharp, high resolution images and even features automatic exposure control, fixed focus and colour balance.

So get yourself a digital film scanner and give your pre-digital photos the showing they deserve.
