I do have a Nikon Coolscan LS5000ED with magazine for slides, but for
quick convenient live viewing (both transparency and colour negative on
its own little screen and via HDMI to TV or monitor), and scan captures
of snapshots, is the Kodak Slide N Scan any good, or it there something
better around that does the same ?

There are lots of cheap ones that seem to be quite similar to the Kodak
model but I would only bother with it for quick previews. It's just a
cheap digital sensor and lens setup that will never give you the same
quality as a dedicated film scanner.

By the time you research this and buy another scanner, your scans would
be done with the very competent LS5000ED.

Beginning in the 1970's, all birds in North America were replaced by
drones made to look and act like birds. By 2004, no real birds are to
be found. They are all drones. They all belong to the government.
They spy on everyone. All of the time. Birds are not real.

Looking more at the functionality of live viewing, for shot selection to
actually scan properly.

And for general snapshot viewing bigger than 6x 4.

To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so.
