Then you might have better luck doing it as you wanted, my old scanner did not, although it did have UTA capability. > How well does that Umax scanner work (resolution, Dmax, etc.)? Current > price? Its pig slow, but it was $150, shipped to my door, so I was OK with that. I want to say its 42bit colour, but that doesn't make sense to me for some reason. 2400x1200, but it also does 9600x9600 software or however that works. Honestly, when I bought it, I didn't care. I was tired of trying, and I wanted a way to look at my 4x5s, since I don't even have a way to make contact prints. I'm happy enough. Except, its pig slow. Did I mention that yet? Let me stress: PIG SLOW. :) -- http://www.infotainment.org "The destructive character is cheerful." - Walter Benjamin - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
