Hello Everyone, Does anyone have a good way to get low magnification images from slides? I have some DAB stained rat coronal sections that I would like to digitize. Basically, I want to have a picture of the entire section. It doesn¹t have to be high resolution, just enough to make out the basic structures. Can someone recommend a way to do this? I¹ve used a flat bed scanner in the past, and I know some folks use an actual film slide scanner. What I¹m interested in are tips for finding a solution, particularly what to avoid, and model numbers that people have used. I don¹t want to keep buying scanners until I found one that works.
And obviously I¹d like to keep the expenses to a minimum. Finally, has anyone tried this scanner? It¹s a little pricey for me, but I do like the idea behind it, although I wonder if it¹s just one of their stock scanners that they have repainted, added an adapter and jacked up the price for. It looks identical to other scanners that they sell for $300. http://www.meyerinst.com/html/oem/pse4/ Thanks, Caroline _______________________________________________ Histonet mailing list Histonet@lists.utsouthwestern.edu http://lists.utsouthwestern.edu/mailman/listinfo/histonet
