wet mount scanning

2005-05-10 by Djon

Is anybody here doing wet-mounting of B&W negs using Epson or Nikon 
scanners? Aware of other modestly priced scanners that might benefit 
from wet-mounting? 

Some wet-mount links...

On the Aztek site there's a Nikon 8000 wet-mount Vs standard 
comparison that's especially convincing....

The Scanmax Yahoo group revolves around Epson flatbeds, especially 
4870/4990...I intend to try this soon with my old 3200, which does 
well with 6X9 B&W to 12X18.

There's also a video that demonstrates wet-mounting on a 
drum...interesting to me, even though I don't plan to sell the farm to 
buy a drum scanner :-) It shows basics of wet-mounting as might be 
applied to a flatbed.
