Re: [APML] Need help with scanner

[jeff allen <jeffstak@yahoo.com>]

Mike,
I bought the Minolta last summer and have had good
luck with it. I only do straight scans at it's highest
res. to get neg. images that I invert in PS. I haven't
used any of the software options for color etc.
I've only run a dozen negs thru it so far. Below are
some sample images.

Good luck,  Jeff Allen
