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.

I don't think you want a drum scanner, look up a video of the process for wet mounting negatives... It's super time consuming, cumbersome and messy. Something like an Imacon looks like the best middle-ground, shame they don't make them anymore...
