I started out in film and I have a big collection of analog negatives and transparencies, particularly 35mm black-and-white negatives. There are still some good shots in there but digitizing them to a decent quality has proved time-consuming and expensive.
I’ve tried flatbed scanners with transparency adaptors, but A4 scanners aren’t able to resolve the extremely fine detail in 35mm originals – even scanners designed specifically for photographers.
