Re: [Digital BW] 120 Film Scanners Compared

2002-02-16 by sm7bxd

Hallo,

can't see the pictures (sorry Photoes..) at 
http://www.photolunch.com .
Could you fix that - i'm very interested while I'm just
going to buy an Nikon 8000 or the "equal" Minolta one.

Are there other placec on the net testing this scanners?
