What is the Best Way to Dispose of Photographic Slides?
I have transferred my photographic collection of over 2000 2-inch x 2-inch slides into digital format on DVD discs. Now I want to dispose of the old slides. Some of these slides are personal family photographics and I would want to maintain their privacy. How should I go about disposing of these many slide photographs?
I have to agree with fotoace, WHY on Earth would you do such a thing? Do you really want to trust these photos to a DVD? Your slides will never become obsolete, they have already proved that to you. Will some DVD be accessable in 20, 40, 60 years? Electronic technology is never ending. Remember when 8 track tapes were state of the art? Floppy discs? Even DVDs are not even today totally standardized. NEVER destroy any original media such as slides or negatives thinking any fickle modern media is always going to be secure.
Many times the "old ways" are NOT bad.
