Subject: [Leica] scanner for proofing

I think that an ok ( read $500-$600) flatbed scanner with slide adapter
makes the most sense if you already have a good film scanner.  Scanning a
whole sheet of negs/slides at a time lets you archive the info, print a
proof sheet for quick look up, and you scan prints if you are still wet.
You also then have the ability to scan medium/large format film for
enlarging up to 8X10 or so for proofing purposes.

Alternatively, one of the best E-6 houses in town uses a light box to
illuminate a cheap $100 flatbed for proofing purposes.
