Good day (or night)
I decided that since i don't have the funds to purchase a good digital camera, that i should buy a film scanner. I don't wan't to spend to much money so i looked at places like BestBuy and Future Shop. Now they do have flatbed scanners that will scan in negatives (and one does slide film) but after reading all the reviews, it sounds like unless i spend alot of money, i will be looking a poor quality.
Now my question is this: have any of you bought a lower end film scanner (such as the Canon CanoScan LiDE Scanner (500F), or the Canon CanoScan 4200F Scanner) and still had reasonable qaulity come from it?
Thanks for any help,
