Hi:

Thanks to JF online and a lot of helpful members who took time to  
explain at the OS X meeting on Tuesday, the basics of managing  
digital imaging files are now in focus.  thanks so much to all who  
answered all my questions. I hope I didn't take up too much of the  
group's time.

Now that I am no longer paralyzed with fear of photoshop, I have a  
question about scanning black and white negatives.  I had thought I  
would buy a Nikon 5000 or a Konica Minolta 5400 II (at least until I  
read that the company is out of the photo business) for this  
purpose.  From what I have read here and elsewhere, people who know  
what they're doing get good results with most color negs and slides  
with these scanners but bw negs, especially those not exposed with  
scanning in mind, leave much to be desired.  As a matter of fact, I  
have the feeling that I might be headed for a lot of frustration  
since I have so little computer experience.

As always, I'll be grateful for advice.

Randy
