Re: scanning slides

[Glenn Barry <bonza1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys,

I have a Umax 1220s, and havent had any real problems getting good 
results, I am using Vistascan 3.1 and Magicscan 4.01.

The one thing that it would be good to share would be different scan 
curves for transparency and negative films.

35mm will always be a problem though wiht only 600 dpi optical 
resolution, that is why Randy does contacts with it.
