That's precisely it! I thought I'd be well set up by adding a film scanner and that's all I'd need for the foreseable future. Well, I'm fed up with it already. I just can't be bothered sitting down and scanning negs all night. It didn't take me long before I just got the film scanned to CD at the shop, which is fine for putting stuff up on the web and mailing to people. A lot of the agility photos I do, I want to share with people, so they go straight up on the web. Most people only want a 4x6 reprint off it anyway. --- Wendy Beard Ontario K2K 2X1, Canada
