Flatbedscanner:
A year ago I started with digital photography using a
HP 3300 USB interfaced flatbed scanner scanning my 10*15 cm (4"*6")
prints.
Results are very good even at the default setting where
this scanner does a preview scan at 150 dpi which means 600*900 pixels
so
almost the full SVGA (1024*768) screen!
Remarkly this prescan can be used to save the scans
directly
to disc.
I haven't seen a scanner with this feature yet!
Filmscannner:
Half a year ago I was looking for a 35mm filmscanner
to digitize all my negatives (black and white and color) which I saved
carefully.
I saw a simple scanner Pacific
Image 1800U( 35mm/strips, 1800dpi, USB) which according to the
photoshop
Combi at Veldhoven should
give much better results than scanning pictures with
my HP flatbedscanner.
I tried to use this scanner for approx . two months but
could not get good results, and the Combi shop could not show how to do
it well
since they had no computer.
I managed to get the Pacific exchanged at Combi Melkens at
Valkanswaard. I got back reasonable amount o money and bought a
Minolta Dual San D'Image II
