Most people still have old slides in their house, usually in the cellar or attic. The photos record trips, weddings, birthday parties and other special events. For a long time, slides were the only way to preserve memories and to look at them again and again with friends and family. The necessary technology for presenting slides back then was the slide projector, which was used to throw the pictures onto the wall. But hardly anyone owns a slide projector today. What is the best way to present slides today? The beamer is a good choice. This article gives a brief overview of the slide projector and the beamer and tells you which technology is more suitable for presenting slides.

Your slides are dusty, have stains and the projected image is a disaster! To ensure that you get clean image files without dust grains or dirt stains, wet cleaning is the ideal additional option.

Your old photos, slides and negatives are piling up in your cellar, attic and storeroom? Wouldn’t it be nice to have all these memories in digital form? Finally be able to reminisce about old memories and share the digital pictures with friends and acquaintances? MEDIAFIX is your ideal partner in this case and will transfer your old photos to DVD, CD, USB stick or hard drive.
