Well, CDs are probably better then 2 years if carefully stored, but even
|
|
<BR>
|
|
still that leave you with either regular migration every couple years or
|
|
<BR>
|
|
face lost pictures. With digital it is often the case that there is no
|
|
<BR>
|
|
loss then suddenly nothing, where as with normal pictures loss is slow.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Black and white pictures on archival paper will lastt 500 years or
|
|
<BR>
|
|
more. color should never be considered more then 20 years.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Digital media has not proven itself to last long, and it faces the danger
|
|
<BR>
|
|
of unrecoverable loss without notice. If you want to go to digital, make
|
|
<BR>
|
|
several copies, and store them in different places, and keep your copies
|
|
<BR>
|
|
fresh.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>For color prints much the same thing, though you can wait a little
|
|
<BR>
|
|
longer. Get quality prints, not nessicarly something a drug store can
|
|
<BR>
|
|
provide. Note that a printout is not the same as a photo, many printers
|
|
<BR>
|
|
give more then a few years before the ink fades.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>If you don't mind black and white, then archival paper needs only a little
|
|
<BR>
|
|
protection. (Face it, you care about your grandpa, but not your great 6
|
|
<BR>
|
|
times grandpa, so you don't even need the best protection) Just keep the
|
|
<BR>
|
|
prints from flood, fire, chemicals (A few older photo albums), and light
|
|
<BR>
|
|
(except when viewing) and you should have a photo for life. I'd make
|
|
<BR>
|
|
extra copies while I'm at it, but there is no need for re-coping.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>If I were a betting man I'd put money on you wanting to preserve color
|
|
<BR>
|
|
photographs in color. In that case there is no solution that we trust to
|
|
<BR>
|
|
last. At least not without budgets like Bill Gates.
