Hey people, I know this is APUG, but I need to get my slides scanned for my website, and that's all! Anyone know of a low-end puppy for 6x7 cm?
Thanks.

Epson 3170. I think you can still get it for $80 refurb'ed from Epson.

One of the APUG'rs has an Agfa Duoscan T1200 for only $100 ((there was a url link here which no longer exists))... This is a fantastic scanner, which will do what you want & more!

Stephanie and Dave,
If you do get the Epson, I strongly, strongly recommend that you get Doug Fisher's film holder. http://home.earthlink.net/~dougfisher/holder/mfholderintro.html

In my opinion, it is a major component of getting good scans from these flatbeds. The Epson holder is pretty wonky.
