As Ansel said ( or paraphrased )..... What do you want the end result to be?
Pick your game plan to get that result.

I do not question that you are right..... scanning is not fun.  However, I
am not trying to scan thousands of negs ready for printing... I am trying to
scan, at low resolution,  many thousands of negatives, taken over a period
of many years, and select out those that should deserve printing.  Those
relatively few negs will then be scanned at high res for printing.

Yes, the wet darkroom is fantastic.... but even using digital for what it
does best.... cataloging, easy accessibility, selecting... is my aim.
