1/4 X 2 1/4 Scanning
I have a lot of old (35-45 yrs) negatives. These were taken with "brownie"
type cameras. I believe flatbed resolution would fit my needs for scanning. What scanners would have a transparency adapter for 2 1/4 X 2 1/4 not just 35mm? What software works.. Vuescan ? ... Thanks Al S |

A "High End" consumer flatbed setup that would handle your application
would be: Hardwa Epson 4870 Softwa (1) Epson Scan (included with the scanner) (2) SilverFast AI (included with the "PRO" version of the scanner) (3) ViewScan (Downloaded from Ed's web site) wrote in message ...

I have a 4180 that works just super with 2 1/4 negs and slides.
Also works with 35mm and even some really old half frame 35 mm. A little cheaper than the 4870 and right now there is a $50 rebate. JohnS |

I know that this is NOT usually recomend, but.....
http://www.tom-elliott-photography.com/hp-scanner.html is where I adapted my flatbed for transparency scaning from 35mm to 4x5 the conversion was around $25USD here in Miami. Have fun. wrote in message ... I have a lot of old (35-45 yrs) negatives. These were taken with "brownie" type cameras. I believe flatbed resolution would fit my needs for scanning.
