Intersting idea. But why use a scanner. Would it not be possible to use a digital camera and a dedicated slide copier? All the best

Has anyone ever tried using a flatbed designed for scanning negatives with a chemical darkroom enlarger? I've been tossing this idea around and think it might actually work. You would of course have to work in a dark room lighting type of situation here as well to avoid outside light affecting the scan. Instead of scanning a tiny negative, you would be scanning an image as large as a print. Any thoughts? I'm wondering if you would have to get a different light source then is normally used in an enlarger though? In the scanner bake off at James Photography a 1200 dpi scanner using a reflective device of some sort clearly had the best appearing image thus far, although the MTF numbers were the lowest. Anyone know what kind of setup that is? http://www.jamesphotography.ca/bakeoff2004/scanner_test_results.html Currently the very bottom one on the list. Dave
