Yah - slide scanning is expensive (specially if you have that many good photos you would like to print).

Thats why - nowadays I do not scan my slides - I just store them properly and view them using my projector when I want to - I am waiting for a scanner that I can afford - the prices have already come down pretty steep -now you can get good nikon negative scanners at around Rs 25000/- (even two years back they were above 1 lakh). I am hoping in six months time they will come down to about 15000 . Then I will get one in my study and have a BLAST!!!! I will do whatever I want to !!!! I will no longer be dependent !!!! and go YAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :-)
