I've just purchased the above primarily for 120 slide scanning although I also have a large collection of 35mm slides (mainly Velvia and Provia). I never use negative film.
Whilst I'm awaiting delivery I wonder if anyone out there has this scanner and could maybe give me some tips as to getting the best out of it. I read that the Scanhancer improves the result and seems quite cheap.
I intend to scan via my Imac, 3.06 Gz, firewire connected etc and assume no problems in this area (fingers crossed). I've downloaded the latest Minolta software but wonder whether Vuescan or Silverfast may be better.
Anyway, if you have any tips or recommendations I would be most obliged.

Scanning is time consuming and labourious. Learn to work slowly, carefully, patiently. Neg flatness and cleanliness are critical, difficult.
The results, especially from 120, can be extraordinary.

Thank you both for your input. The yahoo user group looks ideal.
Much appreciated
