answer:Sadly, I think the efficient ways to do this kind of thing are expensive and the cheap ways to do it are inefficient. Not sure you can get both. You might want to check out this link comparing different methods of transferring slides and “analog” images to digital. Depending on how many slides you actually have, I have probably a thousand, my dad was a big slide guy, I might load them all into carousels and project them, quickly, maybe on or two seconds per slide and take video of that. People will probably be able to tell from that what they want. I don’t think you have to worry too much about the labels. You can reference that after people decide what they want and you will have the originals if there is some interest later. Then you just take the slides people are interested in, hopefully a relatively small subset of them, and digitize them.
