The Marks: Mark Cornelison of the University of Kentucky, and Mark DiOrio of Colgate University. The guys with the 4x5 cameras.

For many photographers...of a certain age...the transition to digital meant wondering what to do with the boxes and drawers and folders of slides and negatives. Fortunately, if you're old enough to have this problem, you probably also have a box or two full of the parts required for a quick and convenient solution. Michel Caron of Université de Sherbrooke in Quebec details his setup and workflow. -Ed.
