Anyone got a decent old(ish) Nikon/Minolta/Canon film scanner they're looking to get rid off at a decent price?!

Anything considered.

Cheers!

Many thanks indeed to Michael, but it didn't work out due to geography. (I'm in Wiltshire, he's in the north).

Still looking!

I have a Nikon Coolscan IV ED in full working order. Complete with all the usual gear. Am using an Epson V500 instead.

Many thanks to John, but outside my budget! Am hoping to spend under £100 if possible...

You can pick up a Nikon LS-30 for under £100 on eBay. A perfectly capable film scanner if you can cope with a SCSI interface.

Thanks all.

I've acquired a Canon FS4000 - for reference, it seems excellent.

If you got that for under £100 you certainly got a bargain ... its a very capable scanner and works well with Viewscan software (needs to be purchased separately,although I do believe you can trial it first if required)
