Most of Timo's mistaken impressions about scanning negatives
come from his trying to use a UMAX PowerLook III scanner
to scan negatives. He was spectacularly unsuccessful doing
this, and he concluded that it was therefore impossible to
scan negatives with consumer film scanners.
I sent him an e-mail earlier today suggesting that he try
VueScan with his PowerLook III. VueScan does a nice job
scanning negatives with the PowerLook III, and is an
existance proof that it's possible.
