I'd put my money on the scan taking a few minutes and their computer taking an hour to display the file. :) The Polaroid SprintScan 120 takes about two minutes to scan a 6x7 neg at 4000dpi, I don't imagine that the Minolta is much slower than that. Unless it's a USB connection -- but still, that shouldn't take an hour. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
