35mm slide scanner

Recently ended up with several thousand family 35 mm slides and promised my
brothers I would scan the slides and create a digital collection for each one of
them. Received the scanner and after a bit of reading, had the slide scanner up
and working relatively quickly. Previously I scanned on an HP Scanjet 5470 and
the process was slow and not the best copy quality. I am finding that of the
slides I have scanned so far with the Wolverine scanner, they are all coming out
on the dark side and require work to optimize contrast, etc. Many of the slides
that are winter shots are washing out as if the light source in the scanner is
not consistent across the surface. No amount of processing with software has, so
far, taken the scanned images to an acceptable image. If I had to do it over, I
would invest in a better scanner.
