A few years ago I used a Microtek SM i800 flatbed to do “The Final Scan” of 5000 slides from my father, this worked well.

It had frames to hold several strips of film or batches of 12 x 35mm slides, scanned as a batch.

Also did negatives either individually or in film strips.

No issues, the resolution was fine and the resulting quality very nice though some editing afterwards was necessary one-by-one to clean them up and do the usual adjustments (levelling, fix exposure or white balance).

Best part was that despite being an expensive one - not a cheapie from Officeworks - this unit was highly sought after by the desktop publishing brigade, once the job was done I resold it for more than I paid.
