Hi All,

I need a reasonable scanner for making 'preliminary' scans of my 8" x 10" negs for general editing purposes. I intend to send out for top quality drum scans when it is exhibition time...

I have tested the Epson 4990 and the Artixscan 1800 and have had major problems with Newton Rings on both scanners (I tested scanning the film emulsion up and down).

Has anyone encoutered the same problems and what has been done to over come it?

Cheers

Murray
