Generally speaking, if your principal goal is to obtain good slide scans, you should not have your slides mounted, and should use FH-3. If your principal goal is to quickly scan a whole buncha slides at once, repeatedly, you'll want to shell out for the SF-210. $450. If you have APS film, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

If you have APS film, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Specifically the SF-210, I've agreed to do scanning of my Father in-law's and Grandfather in-law's old slides (already mounted) if they will buy the scanner. My gut feeling is they will be thrilled with 1000x1500 pixel images. Grandpa won't really know what to do with anything over 600x800, but I am sure he will want to print some so... I on the other hand want a higher end scanner that will let me make some really large prints. I got to play with an older Minolta scanner; and realistically, 15 minutes a slide isn't going to work for me. They will both be dead and buried before I get even part-way into their collections. APS Film? Oh, you mean the Advanced Phailure System? Jim Kramer
