Dear Brian
But Daquerre's process was a technological dead-end that really had no
future
and so there was little call to get round it. It was expensive (it used a

Dear Karl
As CMYK is a much reduced colour space compared to RGB I would have thought
that made it exactly the case. The true test would be to make multiple
conversions from RGB to CMYK and back and see if quality suffered, which of
course it does.
The real test would be to make the

Bob,
I think you mean an ICG drum scanner, (at least it is them who have the
internal oil drum with no taping), and its actually $35,000. (UK £26,000
new)
good machine, as is the Heidelberg Primescan/Tango.

Dear Lalle
Converting to dollar sums for universal simplicity. UK prices for system
time vary between $75 - $125. Apparently New York is slightly cheaper than
even the UK provinces.
If I get a 120 scanner I will also need a Computer to plug it into, a table
to put it on and by many

Bob, I know what you say makes perfect sense - the 150-180LPI screen needs
