It is an Epson perfection Photo 2480 scanner around $280 I think at the time. (6 months ago).

Kia ora Arnie - I will check it out. :thumbs:

Cheers

Agreed, they are brilliant for making archives of old family photos.

Now if I can just the scans of those $100 notes more authentic... :lol:

314912 2005-01-17 06:03:00 Use my scanner all the time, mainly for documents .

Because I opened my mouth over the recent Chrissy family thing, I've just been given a 12 of those yellow Kodak boxes of slides to scan, mid 1950's to mid 70's . That's about 288 slides, + or - . I've got a Canon 3000F with a film/slide adapter, I'll let you know how it goes John, although something tells me I'll be trundling down to the local photo/copy shop to get them scanned professionaly at reasonably high res then fiddle with them myself in Photoshop Elements .

Cancel that model, I had a senior moment ( i'm old enough to do so) at work.

I checked here at home and:

The scanner is a EPSOM 1670 PHOTO, the price was right,

Sorry about the confusion

314914 2005-01-17 20:59:00 Thanks for the info folks. Murray - it would be good to hear how you go, thanks. I hadn't heard of that model. And Arnie, I will look up that different model as well. Ta.

314915 2005-01-17 22:13:00 Arnie, a friend of mine has about 50 years worth of slides he wants to scan to digital media. Can you please let me know what model of scanner your son used - my friend has asked for my advice about slide scanners, and I only know of one (Pacific Image) which has not been much chop for either my son or me.

Thanks

John
