Film one may follow if budget does too. > > Any clue? Canon? Epson? I have just bought Canon 8400F which can scan 12 frames of 35mm strips, 4 mounted transpariences or 1 frame of 120 film. It has FARE Level 3 (Canon's equivalent of ICE, GEM and ROC), so no more problems with scratches and dust, 3200 dpi optical resolution and high power, moving fluorescent lamp, which usually gives better final results than fixed ones with all-surface lighting. It was about 250 Euro in Poland including VAT, so not that expensive.
