<p>I have used scan cafe for about 750 scans (two batches), primarily slides, also negatives and prints. I am very happy with the results -- they have come back clean, organized, without any quality issues. I just sent off another batch and am recommending them to my in-laws. I compared my images to some that a friend did at home and I am so happy I did not go that route, too much work both in scanning and correcting.<br>
I am not getting into the India or not battle (personally I am totally comfortable). Yes, you send them away, but I think the real risk here is UPS and that would be the case for any non-local option. It is a little frustrating to wait so long, but I can live with it.<br>
It boils down to -- this is such a strong value that you can actually get all those family slides liberated to be seen.</p>
Anyone try ScanCafe?
