Digital BW, The Print

Tyler;

I'm using a Nikon 8000 with the glas AN carrier, and the results are 
quite good. The om=nly caveat is that wih the Nikon software you MUST 
scan all B&W negs as positives, and do the reversal in PS. I don't 
know if this shortcoming persists in the 9000 driver or not.
