Flatbed scanner

2006-02-21 by garyphoto6

Hello,
Does anyone have any thoughts or recommendations on using a flatbed 
scanner for black and white negatives? I am looking for a moderate 
priced scanner to do 8x10 negatives. I have read reviews of the "Epson 
Perfection 4990 Photo"($450.) and they were all good but no one 
mentioned doing large format negatives with it. I have considered just 
sending them out to have them drum scanned but thought if this would 
work ok it may be an alternative solution. 
Thanks,
Gary W.
