Re: filmscanners: best film scanner for b&w negs

[magpie@digisys.net (Shawn Coggins)]

I'm very, very happy with the results I get scanning in my Tri-X negs
using VueScan & my new Polaroid SS4000.

It is also able to handle the grain in 3200 ASA film.

I have already sold several prints of a negative that used to give me
fits in the darkroom.  Recently had a exhibit of my work about half
digital & half from my 25 year old Tri-X negs.

Plus it's a great buy.
