Hi.

I was wondering if it is feasible to put 35mm film on to the PC straight out of the camera.

I know there are devices to put negatives on to PC, but are these the same thing.

I work with Photoshop so would like to know if i can make my 35mm films digital without having to go to the film processors then scan the images in with a scanner.

I hope you know what I mean.

Thanks

Since the image on the film is latent until it is processed in a lab, there's NO way you're going to get that image on to a computer without processing that film. Then, of course, you'll either have to scan the film using a film scanner or make prints and then scan the print into the computer.

If you want to skip all of the above process and go straight from camera to computer, then what you want is a digital camera! No film to develop and scan! :)
