Hello Jim, Thanks for that. I got a similar recommendation from a post I made to soc.genealogy.computing. I will definitely investigate further. If you have time/inclination/adaptor to try it on a 35mm slide then I would certainly value your opinion. thanks Chris Watts ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Halsey" <jehalsey@gmail.com> To: <SOG-UK-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 14, 2005 9:18 PM Subject: Re: [SoG] A3 scanners (repost) Hello Chris, I bought an A3 Mustek scanner on the web for about £80 some months ago. Not sure how many arms and legs that is. Am very happy with it but have not used it for negatives or slides. Will try it on them if you wish. I think Mustek sell an adaptor for those, but which of their scanners it "adapts to" I know not! Try the Mustek site.
