Boris. I have gotten ok results from colour 35mm negs,good results from B&W negs,and very good results from MF negs(6x6)on the 2450.I think JOC gets good results from his 35mm colour stuff,so i think it could be hit and miss. On the whole,until i get something better,it fine.

It will offer much better scan quality, additional features like "auto dust brush" (automatic picture cleaning almost like ICE - removes scratches and dust almost not affecting picture quality) will save your time. Of course it makes sense if you use only 35mm equipment. -- Best Regards Sylwek ---- End Original Message ---- Pentax User Stouffville Ontario Canada "Art needs to be in a frame.That way we know when the art stops and the wall begins"--Frank Zappa http://home.ca.inter.net/brooksdj/ http://brooks1952.tripod.com/myhorses Sign up today for your Free E-mail at: http://www.canoe.ca/CanoeMail
