Wow a drum scanner for 150 euros, that sure sounds like a bargain. I'd love to buy one too!

Thank you.

Yes, I do, always. This lens has a 2 f-stops vignetage, wich is a lot....

Thank you, this one came out sharp, indeed. I changed from Rodinal to D76, I like much more the results, with this combination.

As to the drum scanner, I bought it in a comercial printing factory (I don't know if this is correct, in english) those big facilities where they print books, advertising posters, post cards, businnes cards, marriage invitations, etc.

These guys used drum scanners, but, nowadays, most of thme use professional huge flatbed scanners, wich are much faster and simple to scan. A lot of drum scanners have stoped a few years ago. The guy who sold me the Howtek, asked me 150€ and told me it was just because he didn't want to give it to me for nothing!;)

You should try to find some of these drum scanners on those facilities.

To my mind it echoes the water ripples in Nana's excellent photograph.

I think this one is even better, even as it doesn't show as much.
