For one, I imagine a major target for this project are people who were taking photos long before digital (or their descendants) who now want to digitize and share those old slides. Also, the few labs I'm familiar with that will still process E-6 seem to mount them by default unless you tell them not to. I can see the advantage of having the option to scan mounted slides in case you/they forget to leave them unmounted...or on the off chance you still want to load them into your carousel for some weird reason.Jessenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603305908345874346.post-19929200646040856452016-09-19T10:44:43.513-07:002016-09-19T10:44:43.513-07:00Silverscan can be very handy, but it does take a l...Silverscan can be very handy, but it does take a lot of fiddling to get it right. I prefer Vuescan for my Plustek, and I can also directly import into Photoshop through the import devices option.Terrance Lamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02263423704780023031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4603305908345874346.post-45083981115666418232016-08-28T02:45:11.225-07:002016-08-28T02:45:11.225-07:00Thanks for this informative review.

I am using the Plustek 8200i for my 35mm scans and the Epson V550 for my MF scans. Quite impressed with the Epson to be honest. I prefer Vuescan for the Plustek as you cannot choose an intermediate scan dpi between 3600 and 7200 and it doesn't scan in RAW. But really loving my recently purchased Plustek.

You can then assemble your slideshow with a variety of editors (Ulead, Adobe, Sony). Then you can burn your DVD. Since HD is all the rage now, you may want to inquire about scanning to a HD-DVD or Blu-ray disk and assemble from there... <a href="http://www.dvdmakers.com.au/film-dvd-transfers/" rel="nofollow">35mm slide scanning service</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17987913119037579207noreply@blogger.com
