Sorry for hopping into a very impressive discussion about the relative merits of the different scanning methods.
I do shoot film, but I tend to use Filmdev to do my scanning, though judging by some of the examples given here I might need to revisit their files to get better colours.
However, I'm looking at helping my Dad go through his large collection of slides from the 1970s.
He's not likely to spend much time tweaking hundreds of images, so I'm looking at quicker options for scanning his archive.
This
scanner (yes it's an Amazon link) seems to give a good resolution of file (albeit jpeg) and has a much bigger screen and the option to connect an external screen on HDMI (both of which are useful for a person with less than perfect eyesight).
Does anyone have experience with this type of standalone scanner or comparisons vs other scanners or indeed any other suggestions of quicker scanning methods for larger numbers of slides?
Cheers
