Here, scanner list, newsgroup search, some info here and there on the web, and some info from knowlegable people I've run into, whatever. The general consensus is that negatives scan well on desktop units, even the much maligned Coolscan II, but for slides, the more you spend the better. Polaroid and Nikon are most often mentioned as having the most versatile software. Sorry if I'm always the bearer of off topic posts, I like talking about Leicas! Honest! :) And before I began to lurk the LUG I thought I knew something about them!! Nick
