James - I always scan the print, not the negative, since my intention is rarely reflected in the unprocessed negative. However, very good quality scanners are reasonably priced these days. One poster mentioned the Epson 2450, which I also have, but got on eBay, so it can be found for less than the $350 mentioned. The great thing about the scanner, besides the excellent quality, is that it will scan 4X5 negatives if you wish to go that route (additionally, you can insert a 6-frame 35mm strip and it will pick out the images and bulk scan them individually - very nice).

I<br>love it! i see a lot of film pinholes on the sites and<br>I wonder if people are scanning these in or printing<br>them and then scaniing in the print. Because if they<br>are scanning something larger than 35mm they must have<br>some bucks--is this the case or do most people<br>probably scan paper negatives? Any ideas?
