Thanks > jessemc I've tried 2 flat bed HP 4470c has a light adapter to go on the flat bed - takes 4 slides - push the slides up a the track one behind the other quite difficult to load and remove. You have to drag select each slide. Results ok but not brilliant. Windows only and no drivers for Vista. HP make newer models that appear to be similar Canon 9950f much more sophisticated - a template and you pop in 12 slides and it then does all the work - itself scanning one slide at a time - takes 40 minutes or so for the template. Still a flat bed so dust. Windows or MAC Plustek 7200i only for slides and negs - not a flat bed - so some dust problems removed an easy pop in slide takes 4 at a time. http://www.plustek.com/product/7200i.asp comes with http://www.silverfast.com/product/Plustek/535/en.html which means you can adjust stuff before scanning Slides are more difficult than paper as small - enlarge up well when in a projector but how to scan. With the Plustek I would go for 1200 dpi maybe 2400 for real quality some thought on that here http://www.scantips.com/basics12b.html Ron Lankshear - Sydney Aust (from London- Shepherds Bush & Chiswick) http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~lankshear/
