Thanks guys for your comments. I plan to post more as soon as I get a chance.

I have this USB scanner that didn't cost a lot under a 50 at a local supermarket!, I'm sure you could find an equivalent?

That's a great tip Rene, I need something like that myself. My mother has boxes of old slide transparencies, I've never know what to do with them.

Thanks Rene. I will definitely look into it. I think if would be a good investment. My negatives are a little wider than the 35 mm from the 60's and 70's that I'm use to, but maybe it still work.
