I used a a HP3C scanner with the transparency top from a Terry> HP 6100C/T. I purchased it very cheaply to try and it worked. We regularly use a Nikon Coolscan here -- very acceptable results, although it's a bit pricey. You get the equivalent of a 7Megapixel digital camera. The infrared dust removal doesn't work as well under Linux as it does under that other OS, and the autofeeder for unmounted slides/negatives doesn't work at all under linux (no driver). But if you can live with that, the raw optical quality is very good. -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc AT gelato.unsw.edu.au The technical we do immediately, the political takes *forever* -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
