Got a new toy and...

Picked up a VuPoint Film and Slide Digital Converter from Woot. Much faster than my flatbed scanner for digitizing slides. Probably better resolution, too. To test it out, I dug out a box of slides (big box, not just one roll of film type of box) and what did I find? Among others, slides from a trip I made to San Antonio in 1976 when I worked for the Navy. Trip was to take a three week class at Lackland AFB. Took a few pictures of the planes they had on display outside, baking in the Texas sun and another unique aircraft over at Kelly AFB. Posted a few on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2037509&id=1130741194&l=2876b4dfc8. Enjoy.

Back when I was using slide film the slide scanners worked much better than flatbed scanners. That was way back when they were making slide film, too.
