Re: filmscanners: Minolta Multi Pro
Ed,
could you tell us some of your impressions about the Minolta Multi Pro when
testing it for your software - what about overall sharpness, shadow noise
etc. A lot of people out there seem to be interested in getting some well
founded impressions of the scanners quality by someone who has seen more
than this one machine.
Curious greetings, Bernhard
