[Leica] 35mm 'plus' neg scanner

[douglas.sharp at gmx.de (Douglas Sharp)]

Hi Paul,

if extremely high-resolution is not an issue, the Canon flatbeds are 
very good. I've had a Canoscan 9900F for years and often use it for 
quick scans of 24 slides or negs at a time. The carrier for film strips  
doesn't cater for full width, but you could cut your own template for 
scanning the film from edge to edge from black card. The quality of the 
scanner is very good, and is apparently even better for the newer 
models. Costs a lot less than an MF scanner and is invaluable in the 
office too - I get superb results when I have to OCR documents for 
translation.

Cheers
Douglas
