[filmscanners] Flatbed for prints only
Hi,
Most of the posts here are for film scanners, but I thought I'd ask
for your opinion on a flatbad.
I have a Umax Astra 2100U flatbed (circa 1999), that is a bit too
slow. It's a USB 1.1 mdoel. The scan quality could probably stand
improvement.
Can anyone recommend a flatbed, which produces good print scans, but
does not necessarily have a film attachment. This I hope would lower
the price as well. I was hoping to find a flatbad for around $100.
Format no bigger than std 8.5x11 or A4 (or close to it).
Most flatbed reviews I read, lean on the film scan evaluation. I do
not care about that at all. For film, I'd use a dedicated scanner.
I read about Epson Perfection 4990, and it seems a good candidate,
but again it has film scanning which I do not need. The cheaper
scanners do not get reviews at all.
Regards,
Rich
