A non-scanner method of digitizing old slides
Authored by: jt777 on May 08, '06 12:40:26PM

You can by all kinds of adapters that fit over a lens and let you drop the slide right in. No need for a tripod, copy stand, slide projector, etc.

It's called a slide copier, and you should be able to get one at any decent-sized camera specialty store. I think they are around $100 with a T-mount adapter to fit your camera.

Using adapters on the lens and shooting slides is probably the simplest and quickest method and also achieving qualitity close to using a scanner.
