IMHO, they are a really cheap and cheerful product. They are scanned from the print, not the negative, so the quality is dependant on print quality (I would lay odds they made a set of prints from your negatives). Funny thing, we paid 10 grand (Canadian) for the equipment. I figure I could have bought the stuff retail for about 2000.00. William Robb - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
