Having some email glitches but I think I have straightened them out now. Currently, my shooting gear includes M6 and R8 and I am on the verge of increasing my digital output. I am scanning on an Agfa DUOSCAN twin plate scanner which has been O.K. My dilemma is whether to add a digital camera, the Olympus E10 has been recommended for my level of need, but I really am more comfortable with my Leica's and Blad gear. So, I am comtemplating the new Nikon Coolscan ED 8000 to convert my images to digital as required. Reinforcing this decision is the fact that I am well set up with processing gear for all B&W and colour processes in house. Question 1.Can anyone reinforce my drift? Question 2. Does anyone have comments on the scanner in question? Thanks for any advice.
