Dear CSers,
I've recently found a really old photo (print) I like when i was clearing my stash.
The photo brings back nostalgic memories and I would love to digitize the photo into my computer.
The problem is, there are no negatives of that old photo, and when I tried scanning it at home with my scanner, the photos turned out pixelated. Took it to a photo shop in a nearby mall and they gave me the same pixelated photo which I had at home.
Despeckle-ing the photo in photoshop makes the photo blur although it looks less pixelated
so my question is
are there any stores which can scan photo prints (not negatives) in high quality??
(some special scanner or something etc.)
Or do i have to resort to photoshop to restore the image??
PS: the problem lies with the scanners i think, when i look at the original up-close, it's sharp and nice
