I just ordered the Sprintscan from CDW, along with a SCSI-2 card. Can someone please tell me if it comes with all I need for 35mm filmstrip scanning, or do I need to get an accessory? Any other accessories that I might consider for convenience, etc? I know it does not claim the greatest dynamic range, but does it seem to be adequate for something like Provia F? Thanks to all for helping me deplete my bank account, against all my best resolutions to the contrary.

Lower dynamic range than the Nikon 4000, and no ICE technology for automatic scratch and dirt removal, but for myself at least the price point over-rides those concerns. john k > From: "Julian Koplen" <jkoplen@mindspring.com> > Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Date: Mon, 26 Nov 2001 21:05:58 -0500 > To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> > Subject: Re: [Leica] Re: Piezo Plunge > > You folks really know how to work up a fever.
