On more on topic thread.
35mm film users should be mad that film scanners are still far too
slow. It really seems that by now we should have film scanners that
could scan a frame in a few seconds. Has the market for new film
scanners dropped to the point where there is not going to be any more
real development?
Question--and please pardon my abject ignorance here--but aren't there
film scanners that can autoload slides? (You didn't say whether you were
scanning film strips or slides.) That would at least let you load up a
bunch of slides and scan them while doing something else.
There are bulk loaders for slides, but from what I have heard they
tend to jam.
In any event I have all my slides scanned, just have the negatives
left to do.
If I knew I was going to be scanning my film when I shot it I most
likely would have shot mostly slides.
Most of my early stuff was on slides, I liked to see it big and the
only cheap way to do that was to project it on a screen. Once I
started to fill a lot of slide carousals I switch to prints just to
save some space. For me at least I find slides a lot easier to scan
then negatives, although VueScan has helped a lot with the negatives.
