Re: filmscanners: Kodak RFS 3600

[Arthur Entlich <artistic@ampsc.com>]

I  haven't owned of used one.  You are right about the specs.  The 
complaints (and there have been quite a few) is that the software is 
very problematic.  I think Kodak just slashed the price on it, as well.

The other thing about Kodak, as a company, that I'd watch out for is this:

They tend to suddenly abandon whole market areas without warning, often 
for no apparent reason.  They just one day announce "we are no longer 
going to sell ____________ under our name".  They did this in the video 
hardware market, the videotape market, the movie market, the copier 
market, and several others.

I would be cautious in any market they are not a leader, and especially 
if they are branding a product made by someone else.
