Looks like we're getting there. Hope the brain does not fall out along the way as Teflon suggests.

I was hoping that these scanners would be the kind of thing that get bought and sold on e-bay once you've finished scanning. Perhaps the time consuming bit just means it's a life's work so they never end up back on the market.

I guess I am tempted with the Nikon scanner. Would be good to do a try before you buy....

Good luck to you Linzi! Sounds like you have a mission on your hands.

Thanks guys for your help on this.
