I don't think things have changed that much - the 1640su (though I think there might be a 1650 available now) will do a good job.

Subject: flat bed scanner


| Hello,
| 
| I am in the process of setting up shop in Canada after living for many
| years out of the country and am in need of a flat bed scanner.  The plan is
| to use this for making contact sheets, general scanning, and hopefully
| scanning 4x5 negatives and transparencies.  The 4x5 scans will be used for
| small prints and helping to determine what images are worth a drum scan.  I
| am currently using a Nikon LS200 for my 35mm work.  Just before I left
| Bangkok the Epson 1640su Photo with the 4x5 transparency adapter seemed to
| be close to what I was looking for.  Would this unit be practical or are
| there some other models that I should be looking at?  Thanks in advance.
| 
| Cheers,
| 
| Ian
