I typed in “digital photo conversion services” and found too many to cut and paste. Good luck.

If you go that route, give ScanCafe a try!

I used Scan Cafe and too many of the digitized images came back way darker than the originals. I can only use (view) about half of the ones converted. Plus the fact they sent them off to India to get digitized and it took way too long to get them back I would look elsewhere for that service.
I found that when you get a digitized image back after their being gone for 4-6 weeks and having no one to really explain what the problem is/was, then having someplace like Costco maybe a faster and easier solution to get digitized slides. IMHO.

You can pay ScanCafe and get excellent results. You can also do it yourself.

Which would be an excellent reason to ask people with experience (on UHH) for recommendations.
