Re: [Digital BW] RE: Is this noise or what (was:Epson3200 - Test results)

2003-03-18 by Julian Thomas

For colour and my usual 'street' activites I'm perfectly happy - but
shooting landscape where I really want to see detail in bare trees etc it is
driving me nuts. Scans I made of 35mm negs on my ss4000 have loads more
detail than 6x6 on the flatbed. So to add it to my list I just need a new
scanner, new PC and lf printer ;-) oh yeah, I'm also yearning for a hassy
superwide.
