420829 2006-01-13 21:10:00 A v good one is prob out of ur price. Epson 4990. V good many pple use that flatbed to scan sheet film as well. Ie.. glamour model cameras and sheet over head. Its a good compromise between home versions and lab versions.

Have a look at place for other scanner reviews thou.

Backup I mean you wanna scan the film? Scana the print you can't print that much bigger, 2x at most I guess til it breaks up. The native reso for photos scan is generally around 300 or 400 dpi, anything more it does not obtain anymroe detail other than bigger file size.
