Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED I have been using it for sometime now, there is a higher resolution version too. Bit on expensive side but god quality. Thee is also an automatic feeder for mounted slides with it which you have to buy separately. scan time for a slide per minute but you can feed a batch of 50 at a time. Rana

It isn't too expensive, does a nice job and is fairly speedy. The way I had it set up, it would scan 4 35 mm slides in about 4 minutes. The software with it is awesome. There's a bit of a learning curve, but nothing out of the ordinary. Be SURE to use a darkroom brush to clean slides/ negatives.
