- Photos NOT OK to edit
Hi all.
My father was a keen amateur photografer and always carried his minolta everywhere.
The minoltas got newer and better, but the dias never disapeared. Up until we got him a sony alpha 350 in the 2000 somewhere. Wich I still use today.
So now we have about 5000 dias of our family life wich I would very much like to digitize and see.
he started it with vuescan and silverimage and some primefilm 1800. wich I completely hate since it doesnt work more often than it works. Quality is also not to my liking.
Now I do not really have a big budget, but luckely we have a big second hand market here.
Allready read a lot about possibilities and that to get any quality, you need the names.
Nikon, minolta, braun, canon, etc
And to get if affordable, you need the older ones.
So I found three on the market now wich qualify.
Minolta Scan Dual III
Nikon LS 2000
Benq/Acer ScanWit 2740S
The Scsi is not a problem.
Wich one is the obvious choice here?
Even with the nikon only scanning one slide at a time. The minolta having no ice. And the Benq called flimsy.
Thanks a lot!
