tallurianil,

It all depends on how many slides you want to scan and what you intend doing with the resulting images. I have recently bought a flatbed scanner with a slide scanning attachment. It's ok for doing a few slides and printing them in 6x4 - this is all I intended using this device for.

If you want to scan a large number of slides and do some large prints from them, then you are going to have to invest several hundred dollars in a dedicated slide scanner. One with an auto-feed capability is essential if you intend scanning high volumes of legacy photos.

Regarding which specific model to chose, I suspect out member nirofo is probably in a good position to answer this, he scans from slides and produces some truly stunning images.

Regards,

Duncan.
