Re: Copying 35MM Slides

I've got a couple of thousand slides, going back between ten to thjirty years, that I haven't looked at for years. It occurs to me that Voightlander projector parts and decent projection screens are probably rare as hen's teeth these days, so maybe I should copy those slides to disc. So - looking for ideas - does anyone endorse copying by photographing them (and if so, do you know of any publicized routine for doing so), or is scanning the only way to go? IOf scanning, is there a way to do it 'on the cheap'? My scanner is a Canoscan FB 62900, so it doesn't enter into the plot.

Hi Cam...

I'm doing much the same; though with a flatbed.  Many hundreds
of slides, and thousands and thousands of negatives.  Long,
slow process - I'm about a year and a half into it :)

Nevertheless, if I can be of any help don't hesitate to ask.

Take care.
