It's me again Margaret... are you nekkid? I'll be sleeping on the porch when this is all done, but I'm shopping for a LF camera again. 4x5, monorail camera, probably a 270 or 300mm lens for portraits. Nothing fancy. What is serving as a darkroom consists of a small enlarger, a tiny sink and almost enough room to turn around. Given that, I can make contact prints from 4x5 negatives.
The dilemma: I have neither the space nor money for a large format enlarger. Which means I'll have to scan it. What do you guys think about scanning contact prints for web presentation and ink jet printing up to 8x10? The budget is limited, so if I'm going to buy a scanner, probably a V700, I'll need to lower the budget for the camera and lens. Thanks! I'll be right there with the live chicken and peach preserves. -- Scott Loveless Cigarette-free since December 14th, 2008 http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
