I have a Konica Minolta DiMage Dual Scan IV that I have used with a software product called VueScan. I have done several thousand slides with it and it worked well. I couldn't get it to work with any sane related products as it does group scanning and some correction on the fly. It scans a sleeve of four slides in a single load. Vuescan worked very well. Just be careful of dirty slides. They are difficult to clean without damaging them. It is a bit costly at about $430 and the software costs a bit as well (around $40) - shareware type, not freeware. I bought the hardware at Black's back in 05 and the software on-line. I'm still using it so it's not available, sorry. The rest of my workflow was GIMP, to crop, clean, and brighten, then into Digikam to store in albums. -- An old mainframer getting current!
