I've always meant to go back and scan my negatives from years gone by but it looks like I might be leaving it a bit late. Seems like all the big photo players are not in that market anymore. About all I can see in the UK are the £50-100 devices on Amazon that I imagine are not very good, and Plustek in the £200-300 range, that's about it.
Reading around the web I hear good and bad things about the Plustek scanners. No matter what the product it seems lots of 'great' reviews are by people who are amazed at the concept of a product never mind whether it's a good product in its class.
Some people on photo forums recommend using a DLSR with either a rig to hold the camera or an attachment such as the one Nikon sell that holds the film. The issue there would be my camera is old, just 6Mpixels, and I don't have a macro lens.
Suggestions most welcome!
