No longer a newbie, moving up!
I made a previos post and through way too much out there, therefore I'll get to a more specific question. I'm going to be staying with a 35mm Camera (Canon EOS Rebel X). However, I want to be able to take my amatuer photos from film to digital so I can start exploring with Photoshop.
I have heard that taking them to places like Walmart to develop and scan the negatives offers poor results. Is it really "poor" beyond workability, or is this just the opinion of a professional who has the means to do better with his knowledge/tools?
Would a camera store such as Wolf camera offer me better scanned negative results?
Before someone gies me the tip of buying a negative scanner, it is out of the question. I own a scanner already (doesn't do negatives) and my wife won't let me spend money on another one just for negatives right now.
I can scan the pictures myself after they are developed, but I don't know if they will offer the same results, but if someone has some tips on this (ie, don't use glossy paper, etc) it would be greatly appreciated.
