scanner

[Cerulean]

My dad is looking for a scanner that he could scan his old negative film strips into and converted to colored photos. I tried to do it with my MicroTek scanner but had problems with the scanned image / getting it to scan correctly (black surface hid details of photo).

Thanks!

Bump.

Have you researched one of the "specialized" scanners from Epson or Canon that are designed to scan negatives?

This is a unique request that you've asked for help on, so many of us here (myself included) wouldn't know which direction to point you towards.

Epson has a few great scanners that allow you to put slides in. Check them out. A few that come to mind is the V750.M Pro. Though price is a tad steep, one of the best photo scanners you can get.

I'm looking at buying an Epson v500 scanner from the Epson store for $200 for scanning negatives and old pictures. It looks like they are currently out of stock. I hope they are not discontinuing this.
