How can I 'digitise/scan' colour 35mm transparencies?

[Deleted member 89874]

I have some 35mm colour slides/transparencies that I would like to scan so I can upload them. I don't want to buy an expensive scanner just to do this one little job. Need to be able to pull a good high-res digitised image off them, any ideas? I'm based in Cambridgeshire if anybody can help that has a decent scanner for such a thing.

Back in the 35mm film days I had a "slider duplicator" to my surprise I find they still exist for use with a DSLR

No doubt cheaper ones on the bay.

Certainly a more budget method than a full blown scanner.

Why didn't I think of that. Sorted, on eBay. Needed to get a T2 mount to EF though. Hell, I remember those slide duplicators

If you are using a crop sensor camera, check the duplicator can zoom enough to cover the whole 35mm slide.
