35mm negs to digital - Any suggestions?

[wezcountry]

Hi I have a lot of old 33mm negatives that I'd like to convert to digital and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of the best way of doing this? I've looked at some software and some hardware and manually-scan-and-clean guides but maybe someone here has already done this?

You need a slide and negative scanner. I searched for "slide scanner" in Amazon. Here's the first result: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Wolverine-F2D200-Digital-Converter-2-4-Inch/dp/B002TKMG92/ref=sr_1_1?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1276648471&sr=1-1]Amazon.com: Wolverine F2D200 35mm Film to Digital Image Converter with 2.4-Inch LCD and TV-Out: Camera & Photo[/ame]

i have epson V500 and it do a good job. if you want higher quality but don't want to spend too much go for a used minolta dual scan IV. if you have money to burn go for Nikon Super CoolScan 9000, it is as good as drum scan from pro lab.

Something like the V500 should do the job, but like most things photography the more you spend the better quality you will get.

Nikon Coolscans FTW. Used to use them a lot in the adult biz and we would load 50 slides into the stacked hopper and let her rip and it worked great.
