What is an efficient way to scan or get older media typically on 4x6 into iPhoto?
I have a bunch of pictures in photo albums that I want to get into iPhoto.
I just scanned a bunch using my Canon MX860 all in one. It was a pain. For this task I am making a DVD for my father in law birthday. It would have been easier if they are in iPhoto.
On a related task, my mother has boxes and boxes of slides. We need to preserve those too.
Is it good enough to just scan from the picture ? or should I try to find the negatives?
What are reasonable settings for scanning pictures, 300 DPI?
Any help will be appreciated.
