Digital BW, The Print

Quentin, I didn\ufffdt understand the part about neg/scan/ digital capture.

However the Imacon is too expensive for me at this time. It\ufffds at least twice
as much as a Nikon/ Polaroid 120 or Minolta Pro. I am a non professional, no
income through photo, so I cannot justify buying such an expensive unit.
Although its a pity..

I still have some rolls of APX25 here, but its 35mm....

You have two basic digital options: neg and scan, or pure digital
capture.  I'm not sure whether you are looking at pure digital
options, but I assume not.

If you can afford it, the Imacon Photo is good with negs.  It is
fabulous with fine grain film like Tech Pan and the late, lamented
APX25 (sob!).  With a 67 neg, grain will not be an issue, save for
fast film.
