Delusions & Musings
yesterday's update and scanner rant last modified: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 (9:36:24 AM) So I actually should have written this entry yesterday to coincide with the actual update but, oh well. The point being we bought a new scanner now and can scan again in a grand manner. So we can do updates such as yesterdays, one that I find particularily nice. It's only 4 cels but, they're all gorgeous. ^_^
Back to the scanner thing though, I was very annoyed that we couldn't find one with a legal sized scanning bed. I would have really liked that extra space. After 4 hours and several stores, we found about a million with photo attachments we have no use for and only found ome with a legal sized bed. Which was part of an all in one unit for $400 and really I just didn't want to spend that much on things we don't need/ already have. I mean does no one have to scan legal documents or does everyone like piecing things togehter through photoshop? blah. I wish there was a cel collectors scanner ideally it would have at least a legal sized scanning bed and would pick up true colors instead of that weird color pallet unique to scanners. Most importantly though, it would have some sort of dust barrier that keeps dust from entering your scanner bed when you least expect it,especially when it comes to having it trapped under the glass. (I hate dust under the glass more than I have words for!) Alright I'm done ranting for now. I'm sure this subject will rear it's ugly head again though. (namely when the new scanners get's dust under the glass) ~Stephanie
My scanner has a nice, large bed, but I would also like one that was legal sized. Mine is, I think, 9 x 13 or something like that. I don''t have to paste too many things together in Photoshop, but it has happened. But ... that dust thing ... UGH!!! I hate that. My scanner has dust under the glass, too, and it seems pretty much impossible to get rid of. It is so irritating.
A cel collector''s scanner! I love it!!! There''s a market, really there is, for that! :) Yup yup, no other frills, just a really big scanning bed with true color. Now where did I put that djin? *looks in mug and under desk*
A legal sized scanner would be really nice! I have a scanner with a pretty large bed too. And no more dust! And the thing that''s under the lid. No more dirt and dust on that thing either. We need nice, self cleaning, dust repelling, oversized true-color scanners. I would definately buy one :).
Go to your search line and put the name (Microtek) in and search the site for (scanmaker 9800XL). It has 12"x17" and it will do everything you need it to from X-rays to photo neg. and very nice for oversize backgrounds. comes with all the software you need. very nice scanner. will do all types of color!!!! But it will cost you! |
