Slide scanner recs

[5teverin0@lemmy.world]

Anyone have recommendations for an affordable, decent quality slide scanner? I have boxes of 35mm slides I would like to revisit, to post online or maybe make small prints from. Thanks

A digi camera + a backlight + film holder will do a great job. It won't take much post processing bc they're already positives.

I use a Sony a5100 mirrorless camera + Nikon vintage 50mm macro lens + cheap high-CRI LED panel light

I previously used a super cheap Canon DSLR, which worked, but the a5100 is much better. As a bonus it also doubles as a killer webcam + key light combo.
