Re: filmscanners: 110 film
You have a good point. I've seen many reports regarding digitizing Minox
8x11mm that combining optical enlargement and scanning resulting prints may
be a better compromise.
However, I think you must realize that the 110 format probably didn't
produce the best negative or transparency because it relied on a plastic
cartridge to hold the film flat and at the precise film plane.
