For the conversion of personal film or slides I recommend the 'Wolverine' scanner. Got one for Christmas and it makes scanning 35mm B&W, Colour film and slides a breeze. Takes only seconds per photo and it saves to a secure digital card on the unit itself so you don't have to be near a computer to use it. Quality is great and the picture colour looks more vibrant than the ones I scanned one by one using a slide mount on a regular page scanner. Very versitle. Don't lose those precious memories
You can check it out below.

available also through 'Tiger Direct' and I've seen them on sale for as low as about $85 Cnd.
