Re: filmscanners: (no subject)



Don't buy the Kodak RFS 3600, Tony.  The April 2001 issue of Shutterbug
magazine has a review of it and the author states that he'd like to have one,
"... just for the access to the excellent Kodak color negative interpretation
capabilities.  But the software precludes that possibility.  This Kodak
scanner has great promise, but its Achilles' heel is software that's not
ready for prime time."  For what it's worth Kodak packs 10 rolls of film with
the scanner, so you'll get them no matter who you buy the scanner from.

I can't recommend that you purchase the Polaroid SprintScan 4000 either,
which is somewhat similar to the Kodak but just a little more costly.  My
experience has been that Polaroid doesn't have very good warranty repair
service here in the U.S. (mine's been broke for 5 months and is back for
repair for the third time).  Maybe Polaroid's warranty repair service is
better in your country, though.  Also, Nikon has announced a couple of new
scanners that should be available in April, but I haven't seen any test
reports on them.

Welcome to the group.  I hope you aren't overwhelmed by the shear number of
messages.  I have to turn mine off tomorrow when I leave for a business trip
or I'll fill up my mail box and I'll miss my 'important' e-mail.

Take care.
