Go over to www.halftone.co.uk and register on the filmscanners forum. You will get more information that you can handle over there. Also try www.leben.com and register on the Scan forum. Www.imaging-resource.com has a scanners forum as does www.robgalbraith.com. All these are very active and you will certainly get good advice, albeit every scanner has it's loyal proponents. Please feel free to email me off list and let me know what specifics you are looking for. I will discus my own decision process (Epson 2450, 1680 Pro, Nikon LS8000, Polaroid Sprintscan 120, Minolta Dimage Multi Pro, Imacon Flextight Photo) and see if I can add any advice.
