Can a photo lab scan a print or slide for me?
  Most labs are offering this service. There are several advantages to this: you don’t have to own a scanner, you don’t need to spend time learning how to get the most from a scanner, and you can usually get large files needed for large prints. This is a good way to get started with digital imaging. Labs can scan prints, slides and negatives to CDs, and even floppies (although labs will vary as to which of these they can do). Floppies are rarely useful because the image size has to be rather small in order to fit in the limited space of a floppy (only 1.4 MB).
