ot: new scanner and os 9 after X
I have an hp flatbed with an adaptor for negatives. It works OK for everything except that I cannot get an OCR program to drive the sheet feeder--they all say they will but they dont'. Anyway, if you want to do photos, make sure you have a scanner attachment for your negatives. Scans from negatives are much superior to those from prints because of the color depth. You would think that scanning from a print would give better resolution, but a print has so much less dynamic range the extra resolution doesn't help. The HP scans at 2400 DPI and 4 negatives take about 20 minutes. I got an old Nikon film scanner that does them at 2700 dpi. They give similar scans, but the Nikon is much more convenient and breaks each negative scan into a separate scan--so you don't have to open a 100mg file just for cropping out the several photos. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
