I think there has to be a compromise somewhere. The Plustek style just seems to have a design issue with cleaning if dust gets in. This happened to mine.

It's not an enormous amount of money and would be good enough as it would just be used for viewing on the laptops. Can alwys get better scans on individual frames/prints if I want.

So with a little perseverence and Lightroom it will give acceptable results?

These are coming up as quite inexpensive. I only want to view my 35mm film images on a laptop screen and maybe upload to the internet. This should be adequate for such requirements? If I am carrying on with film it would have paid for itself within 6-8 months or so. I can then use the local developer I like as they don't do scans from negatives at the time.

I'm not expecting absolutely amazing results just something close enough to the negative to make me happy. I was previously using a 35mm film scanner from 7DayShop but it got dust inside that I can't get out.

£90 buys one new. Scanning usually adds £5-7 on top of developing costs. IS it worth going this route?

Ok, got my emergency passport and will be in the UK from Monday. Phew. Have to dash but will update and finalise the plans with those who have pm'd me.

Big relief!

One thing, I lost my passport. I am hopefully going to get an Emergency Travel Document from the Embassy tomorrow but I will let everyone know of I can make it back to the UK. I have to wait and see. Hopefully I will and I will in the UK by Monday if not I have to sell these and so a deal will be done on postage (it's not as bad with Magyar Posta as people think!) Hopefully won't need to. I am stressed, with the prospect of having to do Budapest to Rotterdam in one go if it doesn't work as I hope,

Hello.

As with my film kit listing this will be posted from the UK as I will be there from Monday. The lens comes with it's original box and was originally supplied by SRS. It's a lens I like but having the DA* 16-50 back in action and small and portable being supplied via M4/3 it is being sacrificed for house space.

Pictures should be up tomorrow evening. The lens is in almost unused condition and I have had no problems or issues with it . Comes with a Kenko UV filter too. Postage is £5.

£60
