    What to do when its 10 Deg. outside and 70 Deg. inside. I have two boxes of slides some 35mm and some 2 1/4 X 2 1/4 and I always wanted to convert them to digital. I have a scanner but didn't like the way they turned out. I used a clip to hold the slide vertically.

    I set the slide on top of a plastic food container and in front of the GS web page white area.

    You can see a faint image on the camera display.

    Genius. The white of the GS background must be a good, neutral white to the camera.
