I'm talking 6x6 >negatives, with approximately 4.5x6cm usable area. Our extended family has gathered photos and genealogical data for a multi-generation family history album. We want to convert to digital images, but thus far have not found a satisfactory scanner/printer combination. Yes, some are "good" but none are "good enough". We have concluded that "not quite good enough" is not good enough at all. Is there a scanner that _is_ "good enough" -- even though there is not a "good enough" printer -- such that we could archive the images for a future "good enough" printer or printing process? Where might I find a tutorial re this issue? What specs should I wait for? What questions should I be asking? What are others doing in this regard? Until then we are making copy negatives and pasting in prints. Ugh! TX Jim Green mailto:JMGreen@sisna.com http://users.sisna.com/jmgreen - Turn off HTML mail features. Keep quoted material short.
