That’s actually pretty cool for archiving large numbers of transparancies. When I need a quality scan I borrow my friends dedicated slide scanner, I think it’s an HP, but using it is beyond tedious. I would only use it when I have few slides to scan. I have the Umax 3450 and it really is pretty useless as a slide scanner. I expected better from Umax.

was interesting and I will definately see, if it works
just as well for a 16mm film strip.

I also used a similar jerry-rig to copy some larger transparencies that won’t fit in my 35mm scanner
I used a bellows extension from an old camera, put a mask with a translucent material under it and over a light box shot it on macro setting with my digital camera, quick cheap fast copy negs
