I have been in the process of searching for and gathering old family photos and have about twenty-two carousels of family slides (35mm). I'm looking for a scanner or scanning attachment that can do 35mm slides. Any ideas?

Nikon, Canon and others make film scanners, and they all do both negatives and slides. They are not cheap, but if you have lots of images to process it's cheaper to buy one than to have them all commercially scanned.

Google "film scanners".

The Epson Perfection 4180 scanner I have has an adapter for use with slides, negatives and transparencies. I've never tried to use it with slides, but it works with negatives. I have a box of slides of my wedding, taken by my brother, and will get to those eventually.

A friend of mine in the State of Washington bought a scanner that does slides so I know they're out there. Hewlett Packard might be a good source. I don't know where he bought it.
