Greetings, all--

Lacking Judy's aplomb and sensibility of preference for 35mm film, I've been
shooting medium format almost exclusively of late. And I've noticed several
unexpected effects while scanning MF negs with my Epson 1640 SU: 1) cobwebs
have formed under my arms and around my ears, 2) my children have all
graduated from college and moved away, and 3) my wife has taken up with a
young gypsy named Guido. . . .

I dunno. Maybe I should think of getting a faster scanner. . .

Farber seems big on the Imacon series, and there appear to be quite a few
available out there in the refurb market. The Flextight Photo model looks
particularly promising in cost-to-production terms (20 Mb/minute, 3200 dpi,
4.2 Dmax).

Any comments, advise, or experiences (er, with Imacon, I mean) would be
appreciated.

Best regards!

John
