Re: Scanner advice



Title: RE: Scanner advice

In looking at Evan's original post again I see that the requirement was for 11x17 prints, which the ScanMaker 4 cannot accomodate (it has a limit of 8 1/2" x 14").  Microtek may well have another that does larger scans, but I know that the price goes up dramatically when you get into oversized scanning beds.

Apologies if this has been discussed recently...

Has anyone got a tip on a good and reasonably priced scanner that make
sense of:
 - 35mm negatives (b&w -- color would be great, but possibly a pipe dream)
 - 4x5 negatives, glass and otherwise (b&w)
 - photographic prints up to 11x17

Surely there must be a versatile flatbed out there that can do all this
reliably.
