I have been very happy with the Nikon Coolscan IV which has been replaced by the higher resolution Coolscan V. Digital Ice is super. Nikon Scan software is easy to use and powerful.

Hi Nolz,

Just bought the Minolta 5400 - very pleased with the results so far.

Cheers,

I don't have one.. but a friend has the Minolts.. he scans mostly 35mm.. and he really likes it. The scans I have seen are top notch.

sweet!

thanks CDS, i had a quick look at the Nikon scanner but its a tad rich for me, (twice as much as the minolta)

thanks for the input guys!

Hiya
I've just recently bought the Epson Perfection 1670 and am enjoying it.
It was one of the more reasonably priced(£69) ones that I could find.
