QUESTION:

I am looking for a good quality scanner to scan slides and 35mm film to my color printer. Are the Canonscan FS2710 or Nikon Coolscan models a better choice than the Epson Perfection 1260/1660 photo scanners? I want to blow images to 8 x 10 or larger. Also what do you reccommend for a good color printer.

MS. AIREY'S ANSWER:

Dear Johnston:

The Nikon 4000 scanner is the best one out there to scan negatives and slides...no comparison. The best printer out now is the Epson P2200. You will be pleased with both pieces of equipment as both as very professional and give you the highest quality images. These are not the lest expensive, but are worth every penny...down the road you will be pleased and have no regrets about having put out the extra bucks.

As they say..."Garbage in ....garbage out" "Quality in ....Quality out". :)
