If you are interested I can send you a sample image. A plus is that you can record your finished images to a CD Rom with a life expectancy of 100 years. Color correcting during scanning is not more difficult than color printing on paper. If you want more info just knock my e-window:=96) Greetings from Tenerife Jose Luis
