Bruce- thanks for the info. I don't shoot slide film at all, so scanning slides is not a priority. It would be for my Dad, who has shot lots and lots of slide film in the past, though.

Taka, I have it and am pretty happy with it. If you consider it, you should really use the VueScan Software from Hamrick (www.hamrick.com). It really improves the speed of batch scanning. One thing to be concerned with is it's weakness in scanning slides. I have great luck with negatives, but am less happy with it for slides (especially Velvia). With this scanner you can easily scan high enough resolution to print great 8X10's off an epson printer.
