I haven't yet calibrated everything as should, but I'm impressed of the Minolta DiMage Scan Elite 5400. Then again, I was used to an Epson Perfection 1660 Photo. All shot with Konica Hexar AF 35mm/f2, except for the last one, which was shot with the CV Bessa L + 15mm/f4. http://users.telenet.be/philippe.orlent/index.html I hope you enjoy them, and always appreciate comments. The first 5 photographs are from our family trip to Eurodisney Paris, the next ones are shot during the Grape Festival in our village, a yearly recurring Folkfest where everybody remembers the golden era of delicatesse grapes production. Untill the '70s, about 60% of Hoeilaart was covered with greenhouses, where these grapes were cultivated and shipped throughout the world. Ishot the last one when we visited our friends in the Charente region, France. The man with the hat lighting a cigarette is the happy owner, a very gifted painter whose work I admire a lot (if interested, visit http://www.eddystevens.be/homeuk.asp) Thanks for looking, Philippe
