While working in the Middle East, circa 2007, we had an HP Scanner that took slides or 35 mm negative roll film (6) #s at a time.
It had an ingenious double lid with the top one for film and the bottom lid for the normal document or photo scan. It had (2) separate scanning lights one inside the top lid and the other one built into the scanner body. The moment it finished a scan it would throw out (6) separate pictures - a +ve picture from the 35 mm negative roll film. Of course the picture from the slide film would be a perfect representation of the slide. You could do basic correction & enhancements before or after a scan. What was surprising was the automatic cleaning up effect of dusty, speckled & color damages of the slide or negative on the finished output - like magic. I am sorry I do not remember the model #, as we lost it along with all our possessions including our brand new Subaru Legacy in a flash flood. The villa was submerged with 7 feet of water measured from our drive way. It was a national disaster. We just saved our lives. Regards. Bipin.
