Scanning photos is a wonderful way to preserve family memories and with a little know-how, can be an enjoyable process. Think of it as an opportunity to walk down memory lane! With the right technical skills, you won’t take the wrong turn. There are a few common mistakes that everyone makes when scanning photos and one is related to picture resolution. High resolution doesn’t necessarily make a better photo.

Not all photo scans are created equal and knowing the difference can mean the getting better results for your photo scanning efforts. Digitized photos that look great onscreen may be look less sharp in print, for example, if not scanned to sufficient quality.
