Hi all

I am now in the position of being able to afford a film scanner: a while ago
I was considering a minolta one but I assume they are no longer available.
Discounting Nikon, which I think are probably too expensive, what would you
guys suggest. I want to scan slides and negative film, would like dust
removal and to be able to load more than one slide at a time. Is thgere a
reliable site with reviews, rather than the many sponsored links from
googling? I am in the UK

many thanks for any help

Paul

Frankly, Nikon or Minolta - buy through eBay if necessary. I bought both my
Nikon LS-30 and my Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400 (1st version) through eBay
and have had no problems with either.

For reviews, check at imaging resource

Be sure to check out Wayne Fulton's filmscanning site for some basic
information and leads:
