Hi Don,

Since this is a B&W mailing list, I will assume you are seeking the utmost
in quality for your B&W negatives, and as such, the Leafscan 45, IMO, gives
the best results of any scanner...since it scans in grayscale NOT in RGB and
then converts...which, IMO, gives better and more accurate tonality.

;-)

Regards,

Austin
