Two scanners from Canada and two from Australia have been added to the
scanner comparison page. They are (in alphabetical order):
<ul>
<li>Crosfield 636
<li>Fuji Lanovia C550
<li>Epson Perfection 4870 Photo
<li>UMAX Powerlook III
</ul>
As the comparison is based on 2400ppi, the UMAX Powerlook III had to be ressed up from 1200ppi
to 2400ppi. Given the extent of the interpolation, it performed well. The Crosfield (drum scanner) and Fuji (flatbed) scans were both oil mounted.
This week, the slide will see the Epson 4990 before heading off to the Europe for Eversmart Supreme,
Howtek 7500, ICG 380, Crosfield Celsis, etc. A small queue has since formed in the USA so the transparency will
then be heading back there.
