Yes, in big companies like Minolta they often don�t know very much about what�s going on - they are paid anyway :-(
BTW, I have re- studied the sample scans of the Minolta and the Nikon 8000 on imaging- resource, and unfortunately I have come to the conclusion that the Nikon ist the better scanner in almost every respect: Scans are clearer (Minolta has like a veil over them) and show definitely less noise in the shadow regions. Look especially at the "old train slide" which is the killer slide for a scanner.... If I will decide to get a MF scanner (so muc money for a non- professional) I will most likely go for the Nikon then... The Polaroid is cheaper, but no ICE, unsecure future.... greetings Bernhard ----- Original Message ----- From: "david soderman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 3:10 AM Subject: filmscanners: Minolta Scan Multi Pro REVIEW??? > Thank you to Bernhard Ess and Victor Landweber for the URL on the Minolta > review! > > Just thought you might be interested to know that you both know more than > Minolta does! > I called Minolta and spoke to a fellow in digital imaging.
