scanning negs (1 Viewer)

[La La]

yo.
lately, lines have been appearing across negatives i scan.

example:

does anyone know if this is fixable? ie, does the scanner need cleaning? if so, where can i get it seen to?
many thanks.

(disclaimer - not the best negs as i stupidly went to load new film into the camera, forgetting there was already film inside, thus injecting it with a little bit of light )

has anyone got one of these things that maplins are selling? are they any use? Does it automatically save each picture as a separate image or do you have to chop them yourselves? Can it work through photoshop?

can you get reasonable negative scanners for medium format as well as 35mm?

i have a flatbed scanner bought for €175 a few years ago which does 120 as well as 35mm - canon 8400f. while it's passable with b&w, i don't scan colour shots with it as they come out too muddy.

la la - can you see any scratches on the film? scratches and dust usually appear as white on my b&w negs as they are opaque to the scanner, thus coming out white in the inversion.

Anything less than this you're doing your negs a dis-service.

its really weird how its more expensive second hand.

Yeah they seem to have ballsed it up alright €550 is the rough price anyway. It's well worth it.

I really really want one of these. Where did you study photography by the way?

(Don't worry ... I'm not thinking of going in there and trying to nick it or anything)
