So this means I should keep the M3 and assorted lenses I inherited from my Dad? I think I have a couple of stainless (hah) cans and reels somewhere in the garage. A couple of plastic bottles and a can developer (who's making developer now??) I can scan negatives with my ancient Photosmart scanner (the original but it sounds as though I want to pick up a flatbed for serious (Well, semi-serious) work. I have never been really happy with the HP.

Then again, maybe I'll get ambitious:-).

Paul,

The 3200 can scan film, no?

Yes. I was surprised, once again, that the 3200 can actually deliver very 
respectable results scanning 35mm negatives. The scans are good enough to make 
nice 11 x 14 prints. A top end dedicated film scanner would, of course, be much 
better. But without having to stand up to a side-by-side comparison, the 
flatbed scans look good.

I have an Epson 1650 and I use it to scan film, if I need to.
