Re: [Digital BW] scanner for 4x5

2001-10-27 by Julian Thomas

This what I use. For 6x6 you are limited to between 10 and 12 inch square
prints. I've scannedone 5x4- for someone else- andit is v. good. BUT it uses
plastic filmholders, so there is a curve in the neg. I'd recomend wet
mounting for a neg that size.
