I have two questions that some seasoned vets might be able to answer: 1) How good are film scanners (i..e Nikon 4000 Coolscan) with black and white negatives (not the C41 type)? 2) How do most people output their finished prints? I have an Epson 980 that's fine for drugstore quality-type things, but can't imagine printing anything on it that remotely approaches what I achieve in the darkroom. 3) Are you ever outputting to a film? The luxury of being able to do most of my adjustments in Photoshop and then output a negative to print traditionally onto my favorite Ilford paper intrigues me. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
