Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Good thoughts, thanks.
Would have to find a decent quality slide copying device to borrow/rent, of the sort whose color temp, etc. are malleable but also calibrated (to something.) It's possible.

As to 720,000 pix to get to That spectacular bird shot11 well.. it sounds more like obsession than ..dedication. Can't spare the heart beats!

Apropos I think: a recent factoid claimed (heard en passant)
That the fewer number of heartbeats/min of a critter (incl. US) ... the longer the life.
Cited was an elephant and a few others: best guesstimate was: ya gets about 1.5 billion heartbeats!
Fascinating enough theory that I hope it receives further close attention.
New I've heard the heartbeat theory ... Don't like it
Reminds me of the scene in Amadeus where he's told that the ear can only hear so many notes in an evening, and his Opera had too many.

New Don't contemplate doing it yourself
Negative/slide scanning is a surprisingly tricksy business, and it's remarkable what can be achieved with a professional-grade drum scanner by a skilled operator.

Conversely, it's remarkable what a pile of bullshit can be achieved - even with expensive gear - by someone who's not.

tl;dr: pay someone to do it for you.
