Re: filmscanners: CoolScan IV (or LS40)

[Gordon Tassi <gtassi@erols.com>]

Vicky:  In the US there is an article in Peterson's Photogtaphic or
Outdoor Photographer's April issue (I cannot remember which.)  It was
located in the back, just before the the large advertisement section.  If
you cannot get either of them where you live, I suggest that search
throught the March, April, and May  photo magazine issues should have
something about it.   Ihe major companies often provide either a test
module or a press release to the magazines before the unit hits the
market.
