[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 10093, member: 1573"] I agree. That's what I did. My mom was a photographer and her slides and negatives date back to the 1940's. They're too precious to me to ship off to anyplace to have them scanned. I have an Epson Perfection and a Minolta Dimage and both do great. It's not that difficult a job and you can scan, restore, enlarge, do hi-res (provided your computer has enough oomph). There are several places on the net that advertise scanning slides for 20-30 cents. But then there are additional costs for "restoration" and you have to wonder at what point does color correction become restoration in their eyes. The biggest drawback there as I see it is letting those "only copies" out of your hands. IMHO Best Regards [/QUOTE]
