Imagine the millions of shoeboxes and bulky slide carrousels packed with old photo negatives and slides, gathering dust in closets worldwide, made obsolete by the quality and convenience of digital images taken by today's inexpensive but powerful cameras. It's always been possible to have old negatives and slides digitized, but until now the process was slow and expensive, requiring a trip to the local photo-finisher.
Now with Photosolve's Xtend-a-Slide, creating a sharp digital copy of an old negative or slide is as easy as snapping a digital photo. Xtend-a-Slide is a barrel-shaped device that attaches easily to almost all cameras on the market, from the least expensive to pricey pro-quality models.
Attached to the end of the barrel is a magnetically-attached slide carrier that holds the negative or slide in place. The user simply presses the camera's shutter release, and a sharp digital copy of the slide or negative is created.
Top-quality Construction The Xtend-a-Slide is a precision optical device constructed of durable anodized aluminum and steel, to provide years of useful service. The retail price of Xtend-a-SlideT is US$65.00, and is available for fast online ordering and shipping at the company's web site, http://www.photosolve.com/xas.html. Some cameras may require additional adapters; potential customers can determine exactly what they need by consulting the expanded Compatibility Chart on the web site.
