I have also film/slide scanner Canoscan FS 4000 which takes 4 transparencies at the time, takes ages (cca 5 min per frame). I do not have pacience to do it because also the result is not too satisfiing (dirt, dust, lost of detail...)  . What to do?
- let some lab to scan them???
- do they do a good job???
Do you have some experience or advice? Please let me know.

Look on eBay for a used Nikon Coolscan III or LS 2000, both are capable of excellent scans, the later models demand much higher prices. I use a Nikon Coolscan III and VueScan Pro software, it's a combination I use quite a lot as I have many thousands of slides which I am in the process of scanning to DVD, (Blue-ray disk when it reaches a sensible price). Depending on how many slides you have to copy it could work out your cheapest option..
