Hi there Jim, If you've got the time then I would recommend investing in a printer/scanner combo. We have an Epson RX630 printer with a flatbed scanner capable of scanning regular documents as well as slides and negatives. I think we paid about $NZ500 for it at the time (about 2-3 yrs ago) so they're probably much cheaper by now. Undoubtedly there will be other models available as well. We can scan in 4 slides each time and have control over the quality. I'm in the process of scanning in literally 100's of slides taken over the years.

I hope someone will convert his 35 mm slides todisc. I am trying to convert mine for myself and our society web page. Can anyone recommend a slide converter that would make this possible. I have a quotation $1.49 a slide from a local photo shop. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
