How much is an arm and a leg

I would recommend the artixscan 120tf - up to 6x9 slides

Someone on the Rollie list had one he was selling at 1000 USD

I have the scanner - In my part of europa with 25% vat and all it was close 
to 4000 USD

It is good but a little fidly and noisy - but good scans - really

Best regards

Ruben
