Any one convert 35mm slides to jpegs what's the cheapest and easiest way. I have a side copier for my F2 but that won't help me, My Mom just handed me 6 huge boxes of slides. I would like the option of doing larger slides also from my RB67

If you want to DIY and save some $ in the long term, then you might want to look into this:

Note that many people are not happy with that unit. Depends on your expectations.

Mike, if you have a slide adaptor for a scanner, you can either try scanning the slides on the scanner and, necessarily, having to clean up the image afterward,

or

with the slide in the adapter, place it against the camera lens and point at the sky to get even lighting.

As for your RB67 slides, I have some 2-1/4 slides too. Haven't figured out how to convert them. I may try removing the slides from the frames and scanning to get a negative image and then rescanning again to get a positive image. Just a thought.

BTW, I think Peter (Usagi) has that copier unit. He hasn't reported yet on its effectiveness.

Also, if you're intersted in getting prints of them, some processors return the prints as well as a CD with .jpg images.
