HI HARZARDMAN,

I have minolta scan dual III. Not bad for the entry level. The dust brush is far from digital ICE in term of quality. Any I have a sample print out.Both S8R.One is a dirct print from negative, the other is from the digtal file of the scanned negative.

If u want to see the sample ,maybe we can meet one of these days.

I don't think it worth.I think there is no software to deal with dust. unless u intend to do all the cleaning up in PS.Maybe u should consider scan multi 2 (not the pro one). Can scan medium format.good for yr seagull

I now regret that my scanner cannot be use for MF

ic... i'd love to scan my mid formats too..but $1500-$2k + for the multi scan (not pro) isn't too within my budget.... i'd rather add $1.3k get a D60...save me even more as time goes by. maybe i'd settle for e dual scan 3...
