Re: filmscanners: Best film for scanning with FS 2710

In that case Kim you might try Supra. I have been, but mostly 
outdoors, since I saw an article about it, I think by David Brooks in 
the November issue of "Shutterbug". Also see

http://www.kodak.com/global/en/professional/products/films/supra/supra.shtml

I haven't scanned Supra (I just got a scanner). But Kokak formulated 
it for scanning. You might know Supra 100 as, I believe, Ektapress 
100, which was just renamed. Supra 400 and 800 are new films.

I buy Supra from <http://bhphotovideo.com>, which has it in rolls, in 
packs of five, and in packs of 20.
