  1. Jon,

     

    I use a Microtek i900. It produces some beautiful scans. One of the nice features is that the cover is removable. So is the glass for

    cleaning. Of course you should always protect the glass with clear mylar or acetate. I would also recommend SIlverfast AI instead of the

    Microtek software. It's much faster and, more importantly, has much more sophisticated control.

     

    You can see some of my work here: http://www.timfleming.com/scanner/scanner.htm

     

    Good Luck!

  2. You can download a full size file here: <b>http://web.canon.jp/Imaging/eos5d/

    eos5d_sample-e.html</b><p>

    Note: only the "Macro" image is the full 35Mb file. You'll be downloading a 12Mb jpeg. I

    printed the Macro image at 16 x 24 and it is impressive. Then I printed a section at the

    equivalent of 24 x36. Not MF quality, but "acceptable," I think.<p>

    I have used a Mamiya RZ for landscape work for years. I am also considering the 5D. For

    me, the advantages are: <li>size and weight<li>no need to scan film<li>instant

    feedback<p> Plus the prices for MF equipment are plunging rapidly. I think I would rather

    get the 5D, then upgrade as the technology improves. Who knows what the RZ will be

    worth in a year or two? Not much, I'm afraid.<p>
