Looks like there is a coupon to get an additional $20 off and free shipping. I have an earlier version Wolverine FD2 that I'm "satisfied" with but it does not do a very good job with chromes. http://andy-sharp.com/vintage-images has a version after mine, but before the Titan, and I think it does a better job than the model I have. I think https://louiefavorite.myportfolio.com/black-and-white-one was using the Epson V850. I do not know much about this https://www.amazon.com/Plustek-OpticFilm-motorized-Negative-resolution/dp/B.../ One more option is getting a light table and then using a macro lens to copy the film and inverting in Photoshop.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I just checked and found it online for $160.00 and $120.00 refurbished. Whichever scanner you get don't think that the scanner features are fully going to eliminate scratches and dust. A little time prepping negatives before scanning saves a bunch of time trying to fix things in post. If you check Youtube there are several good videos to pick up tips on the process.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?
