I just noticed that the price of film scanners are
dropping. I bought a Canon FS4000 for $799 USD from
B&H in February of this year. I just checked and the
price is now $599! I also noticed that the price of
the Nikon's are dropping too, plus rebates are bigger.

Perhaps now that DSLR's are below $2000 this has
something to do with it? I also hope that higher
resolution scanners with better software will be
coming out, like the new 6000dpi Minolta. An 8000dpi
one would be good.

Perhaps film scanners in the future will be able to
pull more info from slides with less "noise" (better
analog to digital conversion). This has been my
biggest gripe against the whole film vs DSLR
arguement.
