Hmm, does seem pretty expensive but sounds interesting. I've got an old Canon FS4000 for 35mm, which works ok for me. I'm curious what people recommend for 4x5 film.

Is there such a thing as a cheap drum scanner.

The Epson scanners are supposed to be nice but they stopped making them and they’ve shot way up in price second hand.

Yeah I do remember hearing good things about the Epson scanners, will have another look, thanks.

I’m not sure if they can do 4 x 5. I know they can do 120.
