Michael Johnson asked for advice on slide scanners. We've been using
the original Nikon Coolscan for a few years now and love it; there's
a newer model that's supposed to be even better. We use it for print
production, up to roughly 4X4 inches with no resolution problems; if
you decide you need to go much larger for color printing work, you
might want to get a service bureau to do the scanning for you, but
for online, the Coolscan is more than adequate.
