Re: What scanner? Advise please

So Dave, (to get back to the topic) The conclusion you can draw from all this is that flatbed scanning is a joke and if you read this by all means the most professional way to describe todays situation you will understand it more than well http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/scanners/drum_scan...

Re: What scanner? Advise please

If you are into alternative processes then you obviously don't have as much use for digital printing but, not everyone is interested in such processes, either that or, as with myself, Yes I have much use of digital printing not to create images but many of my larger than 8x10 duplicate negs are mad...

Re: What scanner? Advise please

its just not an economical way for photographers to spend their time. Especially those who are trying to make money from their work. I think I speak for the majority of photographers when I say, 'I would rather be outside taking photographs than stuck in doors trying to make prints!' I agree as a m...

Re: What scanner? Advise please

I rent time on a imacon ore drumscanner. The later can easily outperform a optical enlarger. Thats correct Gari but than you must have a very expencive printer to outperform the well made optical print. or leave it to Ilford which would charge you a lot again. Anyway i don't know why I bother as I'...

Re: What scanner? Advise please

I pulled back to my trusted darkroom and optical enlarger. I'm not supprised as scannig the negs with flatbed is just a joke. If you want the best result than you should use a drum scanner which is still top of the line. You got absolutely the best results out of it specially when scanning 8x10. i ...
