Which is around 12 of yours.<br /><br />One of the reasons why I do all my b&w at home and scanning as well: it works out a lot cheaper and I only scan what I think will come out good, to save time.<br /><br />I'd still kill for a big sensor scanner capable of 12MP equivalent, with d-Ice and good focusing! That'd be a lot faster than the line-by-line scanning of the Nikons...<br /><br />I'm getting more and more tempted to investigate the use of a slide duplicator and a dslr to "scan" faster!Noonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04285930853937157148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709537690528523236.post-33749988770111565182010-04-08T16:47:58.283+10:002010-04-08T16:47:58.283+10:00Interestingly enough with the release of kodak'...Interestingly enough with the release of kodak's Ektar film I find my local Costco store to be about all the lab I need. They develop the roll for $1.54...yup...a buck fifty four. They develop and give me a 6mp scan of each frame for about $5.00. I've spent the time getting to know the technicians and they do good work. Not sure what you have in Finland, or Australia though. Mail charges would probably be high.Charles Maclauchlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371804975922943864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709537690528523236.post-80929912183837991232010-04-08T00:08:42.373+10:002010-04-08T00:08:42.373+10:00For 99% of the people, digital is good enough. Go...For 99% of the people, digital is good enough. Good enough is what kills film. Most don't want to do the scanning, they just want to see the pictures after clicking the shutter. Minute details that they don't normally see is irrelavent to them. Sad really. I see a change in image quality in Canon cameras. The 7D/T2i is heading in the direction of high Res/Lower pixel quality.Lens Bubblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06445561503570800312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1709537690528523236.post-42476982946995425512010-04-07T22:29:15.046+10:002010-04-07T22:29:15.046+10:00I've been ignoring for years now the film info...I've been ignoring for years now the film information in LL. Will never forget their claim that film was digital because "each grain was a pixel"... :D)<br /><br />That site is just plain biased and ignorant on film matters, period.<br /><br />It's obvious Hasselblad is not interested in producing an amateur priced scanner and Nikon doesn't give a hoot anymore unless it can help them flog digital gear.<br /><br />If only someone could come up with a large sensor scanner - like the el-cheapo models in ebay but capable of at least 12MP with Ice- but with proper film strip advance, film flatness control and a focusing device... I'd buy it in a flash, if it had vuescan support!<br /><br />Or if Noritsu made available their scanners and their scan software to those amateurs who might want a high quality scanning facility at home. Rather than only bundle it with their entire processors.Noonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04285930853937157148noreply@blogger.com
