On my case I don't plan to print, I only want improve the quality of the posted images, for printing I prefer traditional methology (I'm always referring to B&W). Saludos cordiales, Luis -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+luisripoll=telefonica.net@leica-users.org]En nombre de Richard Enviado el: domingo, 07 de agosto de 2005 21:28 Para: Leica Users Group; 'Leica Users Group' Asunto: RE: [Leica] OT: Scanning B&W film via a Nikon LS-4000 vs. aMinoltaElite 5400 Partly because of that troll, but also, I figure since I spent so much money on equipments already, if a scanner is better than my LS-4000 at scanning negatives for the cost of a .... Leica lenscap! (OK I exaggerated there), I should look into it.
