Thanks all!

I’ll be looking into these suggestions.

soosh, Ah, after seeing the items listed, they are racks for my EXISTING flat bed? Or not?

Mine’s dead.

But, I really don’t wish to spend almost a grand.
My budget is a pinch lower.

This WOULD cover my new scanner for business and my needs for photos.

hmmm

Which EPSON do you use / reccomend ?

I can save up for it if it’s this much better. Is it the software or the hardware?

Ooops, dammit. It’s late. G’night.

Check back later.

Soosh, so the items you reccomend are this contact proof type frame neg holder with a flat bed scanner?

I have an Epson as well (I got a V750 because I shoot large format occasionally). The results from medium format film are great, I wasn’t so happy with the 35mm scans (they’re OK if the film is flat, but I had trouble getting usable results from film that was even a little bendy). Now I have a Coolscan V for 35mm and the Epson for larger formats, and I’m quite happy.

Elisnore.. Double down damn cool! Thank you..Thank you..Thank you.

Sleeping, The 750 is what.. 4 hundred dollars and it really has that much more of an ease of use factor? Because?

I’m still a complete noob at this and Elisnore has provided a nice unit to scan with.

Sleeping, I am not discounting your advice at all! Just bang for the buck, you know.

Yours is tre’ expense mo’. Do you like it THAT much more and why?

Thanks again all!

I’ll check back as there are few registered Farktogs on right now.

Once again, thanks so much Elsinore for a direction. More than I expected this quickly!

OooooO, there is a notify me button! Cool11ty

The Epsilon seems to ask for transparencies. This means ‘slides’? Yes?

As mentioned I’ve not placed my negs into slide cardboard thingies.

So, I’m up against either cutting my 120m square negs and putting them into holders or finding a scanner that allows me to slide my 3 – 4 strip of 120m negs into a slot and rolling them, or something?

I apologize for being such a clueless doofuss with this new fangled stuff but if some kind soul wishes to give me a direction or some of teh current terminology in scanners or possible slide talk compared to neg talk, I’ll be ever so grateful.

My price range for this um not yet found thingy would be around 2 – 4 hundred, or so.

Thanks Elsinore. So how do you pass the negs into this machine?

$149?? Wow, much less expensive than I was looking at. Cool!

Did you buy yours new? From? Satisfaction with the company?
