Have a large number of 35mm slides and negs to digitize; wonder what works best? Looking at Kodak digitizer for around $150. Want simple, fast, accurate images that could be printed up to 8 x 10.

When I scanned a couple thousand slides I used a slightly older (now) flatbed that can hold a number of slides (I don't remember number) at a time and the software worked pretty well.

I did consider having it done by a service but that was pretty costly at the time, maybe a decade ago. Back in win 7 days

I also did a lot of negative scans too and again worked pretty well but it was a time commitment
