| 93250 | 2002-10-26 20:31:00 | Hi Does anyone know of scanners / scanner adapters that are able to scan old two and a quarter inch slides? Thanks |

| 93251 | 2002-10-26 20:42:00 | You can of course scan 35mm slides but yours are bigger than that . I would suggest a couple of options . . . . a- call some the photo warehouse retailers, there is at least one in Christchurch, some in Wellington and Auckland but I would suspect you would be looking at some good money if they could source you something . b- a better option would be to visit some of the professional photo labs (not your local one hour lab) that do work and digital scanning for us in the professional market . there are some very good ones out there in all 3 main centres and many of them will accept work from out of town by courier . There would of course be a cost involved but I am sure they could scan something for you onto CD and / or scan and reproduce new slides or prints, it would all depend on what the end result was that you wanted . Call around, if one cannot help you, before moving on ask if they can suggest someone that can help you . You will find most of them to be friendly and helpful . |

| 93253 | 2002-10-28 02:05:00 | my scanjet 5370c (HP) will scan up to 1/4 plate slides (5"x4"). I think the newer model is the same. Handles 2 1/4" no trouble. Regards, andy |

| 93254 | 2002-10-28 03:03:00 | I am thinking to buy a scanner with adapter for slides or negative, which I want to scan and print out to postcard size or larger than that. So, I wonder HP5370c or canon D1250u2f will be good enough to handle it or I should go for Hp5470c or Canon D2400uf. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you (_)(_) |
