I am considering the following scanner to be used for
A.) Submitting prints to forum gallaries as well as for transmission to some of my photographer friends. Also,
B.) I would like to explore the possibility of making 8x10 negatives for contact printing AZO from 4x5 negatives since I don't plan to get an 8x10 camera.
My primary interest is the former.
Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.
