Straightening Out a Lenticular Screen

I'd try steaming before ironing.

Turn the iron up high, and press the steam button while the iron is close to the fabric.

Hmmm. Sounds interesting. I think that I might experiment at the corner of the screen. Ironing at a low heat, (I did not want the screen to melt ) did absolutely nothing.

Im not sure what this kind of screen is.. I only refer to lenses with that word. Is this one of those sand covered screens?

Our walls are white, presto, instant screen for anything including powerpoint

farmerman- Problem is, we do not have an expanse of white wall where we can project the image.

I think that we have given up on the screen. The reason that I asked about it is because we have a lot of old slides that we wanted to digitize. We figured that we could take a picture with a digital camera from the image projected on the screen.

I surfed around, and found a place that would take 35mm slides, clean them, correct for color balance etc. for 59 cents apiece. Not bad, but what we have is 2.25 X 2.25 which costs $1.99 each!

Anyhow, we came up with a pretty good idea. My husband has one of those very old slide viewers. It is a good one, and the slides really look 3 dimensional in it.

We took the viewer, and set it up so that the lens of the viewer butted on the lens of the camera, which was set up on a little tripod. We had the back of the viewer near a window, so that there was a lot of light. I turned off the flash, and set the camera to "macro". The pictures came out pretty good, if I should say so myself.

The one problem that we had was that obviously 2.25 x 2.25 is a square image, while the camera takes rectangular images. A snip here, a crop there, and the pictures look fine!
