RE: [Digital BW] Best 35mm Black & White negative scanner?

2002-05-27 by Austin Franklin

Leafscan 35. (or 45, which scans at 5080, and the 35 at 4000).  It's the
only scanner I know of that scans B&W using a single neutral density filter,
instead of scanning in RGB.  Because of this, there are no RGB artifacts in
the scans.
