gone but not forgotten
I took a lot of slide pics in the 1970s and got them into a computer by doing the following.
Short piece of wood
Fixed a digital camera to it with blue tac etc
Set camera on 'macro'
Made some card to hold the slide vertical about three inches from the lens.
Fixed a diffused light source behind the slide battery and bulb
Pressed the camera button focus and took a pic.
Did about a hundred shots very quickly by just changing the slides.
Example images can be seen in a couple I put on the forum here

The slightly dark corners were actually on the slides.
