35mm Slides to Digital

Quote: "I've been scanning slide at work using a scanner witha slide insert which gives ok results.

I have to say I'm not sure why anyone would print so small on to a small bit of see through paper and not just save the file on to a disk like I've always done with all the photos from my cameras. Photographers in the olden days did some strange things"

If you mean transparencies, I don't think there was ever a camera which would take slide pictures (transparencies) and simultaneously save to any sort of digital material.

(Am I being particularly thick, or was it a joke and do I owe you an apology?).

Possibly.
