Scanning of large format 3D glass slides or cards

Especially museums want to show their
collection of old 3D glass images and cards to the public but don't
want to expose them to public in real. You can scan these old image carriers of
around the 1900th taken in black
and white and often sephia coloured to high resolution digital images. By
scanning them, remount them digitally
to correct 3D and maybe record them back to 35 mm. film, you can show the same
old-fashioned impression on
a modern way to your public.
fixing / repairing the image
Depending on the quality of the original
material, the customer will be informed how far the image should
be fixed to be presentable enough. In most cases, scratches and spots disfigure
the image. These
can be removed but that takes time and costs. For example; the a part of the
left or right image
could be missing because of failing developing process in those day's. Even such
damage can be
recovered using the modern digital techniques. Then the new image is even better
than the original.
3D mounting
Correct stereoscopic (3D) mounting seems to
be unnecessary: "the original was good enough? wasn't it?"
Yes, you can look at the original and see 'acceptable' 3D but the stereoscopic
mounting in those day's was
not always that good, especially when they were glued in mass in cardboard for
commercial use with separate
left and right photo prints. One image could be rotated a little with respect to
the other or even have
magnification differences between left and right. By mounting the images with a
3D mounting program, the image
will feel much easier for the eyes to look at then the original did.
You can have a discussion about the way you want to present it
to your public. Some want to keep the original errors and
damage in the image to keep it authentic. De Wijs has the opinion that the
original photographer in those day's wanted to
present his image as good as he could. It is about the things that are on the
image not the way how it is presented.
A sephia colour is for some images in those day's the original colour because
the photo paper was that colour. But also
other types of photo paper have been used giving nice black and white images. So
they don't have to be all sephia.
