Alastair - The best way to scan slides and negatives with a film scanner is to mount them in slide mounts that hold the film very flat. I've found that Gepe and Wess mounts work best. With a bulk scanner, you can set similarly exposed slides or negatives up to scan 40 or 50 at a time without any attention from you. Tina Tina Manley, ASMP http://www.tinamanley.com
