The meeting of the
Honolulu County Genealogical Society of Sep 8th 2012 met at the Manoa Gardens Community Room, at 9 am. Donna Wendt presented the main topic concerning photo use in genealogy, the technical aspects. An audio/visual presentation entitled "
Digital Images: Scanning, Editing and Preserving Your Photos" was shown from a Legacy Webinar by
Geoff
Rasmussen. In addition, two types of scanners were exhibited: the "
ImageBox Standalone" for slides and film strips, and the "
FlipPal Mobile Scanner" for large items, to take to libraries, and for travel. Digital cameras with a tripod can also be used to take excellent photo images of heirlooms or documents. Photo editing software was discussed including
PhotoShop Elements and the free
Paint.Net.
