Have you looked at :-
I recently purchased one of these and the results are quite good. It's a
bit fiddly to set up but once set and you're over the learning curve,
then the results are adequate. I've managed 6x6 scans, which is about
the limit and my negs and transparencies need to be colour corrected -
which is probably a problem with the scanner - everything seems to have
too much blue) - b&w scans work very well. You will need to scan at
maximum optical resolution for the smaller format negatives. They also
offer a fourteen day money back guarantee if not satisfied.
Regards,
Dave
