Digital Photo Preservation Techniques
Digitizing family photos is an important task, especially when they span several decades and vary in media quality. A flatbed scanner is recommended for fragile photographs, as it is less abrasive compared to other scanner types. Additionally, hand-held scanners can be beneficial for delicate materials that are difficult to remove from albums. For image storage, options such as self-hosted NextCloud servers are suggested to ensure accessibility for family members while keeping their privacy intact.
