WRT the possible new purchase - any recommendations for a scanner to
batch large numbers? I'm inclined to go for a not quite front line
version of the Minolta multi, which I can get for about �700 + the
batch feeder, but am open to persuasion otherwise.
If I were taking a job to scan 1000+ mounted transparencies, the *ONLY*
scanners I'd look at are those that include an automated slide mount
feeder that would do more than 4 at a time. Nikon has that for their
higher end film scanners, I don't know about the other manufacturers.

The Minolta one does 50 at a time. Looking more carefully, it may be
nearer to 4000 slides, plus quite a lot of unmounted stuff.
