Hello all. My in-laws are having their 50th anniversary next month. My wife and her siblings would like to include a presentation of a bunch of their old pictures. Many of these are in the form of slides, and they would like to scan them so that they can be included in a slide show presentation. I know nothing about what to look for in a slide scanner so I'm looking for recommendations. If we bought one, I'd like one that I could also scan 35mm negatives as well since I do have a very under-used 35mm camera which I may use more if I had a decent scanner.
So what specs and models should I look at? Also would it be more economical to have a lab do it for us? I'm not sure what quantity exactly we are talking about but my wife brought home one of however many boxes today, so I would guess several hundred?
Thanks
