 | In order to store all photographs digitally, and even video shoots, and background
music, I'll need to to buy a CD-RW drive, which I haven't.
 | Storing them digitally would immortalise all those images, still and moving, not to
mention sound - simply because they'll not deteriorate in time, unlike there paper-based
counterpart. Video tape also goes kaput after a while, due to wear and tear. |
|
 | Once the CD-RW is installed, plus hopefully a video-capture device to digitise my video
home-made movies using my digital Panasonic NV-DS5,
then I could produce multimedia versions of the CD-R using software such as Macromedia Director.
 | But huh? What do you mean digitise digitally created movies?? Well, if I bought a
digital video-capture card, then I could merely transfer the movie over into my PC, but
those things cost a bomb. And they usually only accept digital input, so you can digitise
from your VCR. Unless there's a dual-ported analogue and digital vc card.... |
|
 | So, this means I'll have to settle with just a simpler, non-digital parallel-port (or
better still, USB-port) video-capture device (not even
a SCSI-based vc card). |
 | Needless to say, shots taken in slides have to be scanned using a slide-scanner, which
costs another blast. But now, I'm thinking of getting a much cheaper alternative - the
transparency adapter of my colour scanner. |
