I have been setting up a slide show to be displayed on a laptop and
have given my Minolta Dimage Scan Dual its first real workout. I am
shocked! Although the resolution is OK, it will not come close to
capturing the exposure range of an OM exposure on Fuji film. If
everything is evenly sunlit, it is OK. However, forget about
anything taken in the open shade, especially if there is a portion of
the image in the sunlight. The slide may look great on the light
table, but there is no way I can get a decent digital image out of
the scanner.
Is this just what I should expect from a bargain scanner or is this
an occurrence with anything less than a drum scanner? Or is it me?
