Digital BW, The Print

Hi Jerry,

I have the original model of the Polaroid SprintScan 45,
purchased on Ebay last year for $800.

I had a BW neg of mine scanned via a Nikon 8000 and Imacon -
I had been considering purchasing the Nikon as it has
4000 dpi vs the 2000 of my scanner. After closely 
analyzing the results, the Nikon was nowhere near the
quality of either the Imacon or my Polaroid, and there
was so little difference between the other two, it made 
me realize this scanner is outstanding.

Of course, this was just a sample of one of each type
scanner, and I am not sure that particular Nikon 
was functioning properly.

Just another idea for your consideration ...

Best,
Alex

very, very robust.
