Digital BW, The Print

Todd,

I don't shoot 35mm so I can not really opine on the grain of a 35mm scan. I so shoot 120 and 4x5 and scan T-Max 100 and Fuji Astia regularly. I have scanned Kodak Portra Neg film with good results, but obviously negative films is granier than transparency film.

  Mike, as you have access to a high quality CCD scanner and a drum could you
  comment on which you prefer for color negative material, particularly 35mm
  and 120mm formats? I've only gotten a couple of drum scans of color neg but
  it did seem *considerably* more grainy than CCD scans of the same materials.
