>From Sam who is list member on one of my many genealogical
lists..
this product is something that a few of us may be interested
in.
this is the web site http://www.scanace.com
"""when I was at the library about a month ago, a woman had
this small machine.
she told me about it and show how it worked. it is a size
of a the old
cassette recorders (very portable). you use it with a
computer or lap top,
but to be portable, must use the lap top.

it is called "PrimeFilm 1800u Scanner" by Pacific Image.
their website is:
http://www.scanace.com this scanner can be use for PC and
Mac, and can scan
slides and 35 mm (and sure 16mm) films direct to your
computer/lap top.
compusa was selling the machine for $189.97 (plus tax). but
going to the
pacific image website, they refer you to companies selling
on the internet.
i found one company selling it much cheaper than compusa
called "the scanner
outlet". the total price (including p+h, no tax) was
cheaper than what
compusa wanted before taxes. and saw the website 3 weeks
ago, the price
went down.

have learn that it is better to scan new microfilm, as less
scratches are on the films and the scan come put clearer.
plus on the scan image, can make adjustments as in a
photoshop
programme. """
thanks Sam for sharing this info..
