Re: "Sigma SD1 Merrill not good for scanning negatives/slides"

Hey Dr Tebi, I’m confused, so is it good or not good? It says not good, but the sample pics look alright. What about the QH? I was going to use it to scan some slides I made in the 70’s but don’t want to waste my time if Sigmas are no good for this. Should I use my other camera instead? I’m going to use a tripod and a lightbox, how do you think that would work? Will the files be good enough to print at 12x18?
