The Plustek OpticFilm 7200i 35mm Film Scanner; An Affordable, High-Resolution Scanner

“Some believe film is dead, but I get as many e-mails from photographers as ever asking about film scanning. The reason is that digital cameras have brought more photographers into using a computer for photography so now they want to access the film images they have made over the years in digital format. A new, dedicated 35mm scanner model is a rarity these days; none of the established brands have offered new models lately. In fact, a used Konica Minolta DiMAGE Scan Elite 5400 II is currently bringing bids of well over $1000 on eBay. So even though film to make new photos is in serious decline, it is very much alive in the form of existing images made in the past, now being prepared for digital printing and sharing.”
