And I chose the Nikon LS5000ED for quality and speed. In addition it
has the bulk feeder for slides and films.

OTOH I'm not particularly fond of the NikonScan 4 software, although
it works quite well most of the time. Between it and VueScan I've
been able to do many thousands of slides and negatives over the last
10 months.

Regardless of what you choose , if you have a lot of scanning it can
be very time consuming and that does not even take into account the
post processing, sorting, cataloging, and archiving with a good and
logical naming convention.

Then there is the additional information for each file.
