HI, Not all scanners have Transparency adapters or the ability to do negitives. Try a 35mm copier that does Neg/Slides and some even do Micro type films & Fiches. See computer shopper Mag. it will help or do a search on the net. Any pictures that you want to save and you don't have a negative make one / use a photo copier. It attaches to a camera as does most len's connect. All this is not complcated if you can read. Dwight Stipes > From: Billie M.
