Hi Gang....................


As I have mentioned before It seems as if
shortly I will be attempting to move into
doing photography digitally.

[per all my questions about the Olympus E-10]

I was at first thinking of continuing to use film
and scan it and then print it digitally or have
photo type prints made from the scans.  

And as cost was an issue I was looking into
using a flatbed scanner such as a Epson 2450.
(now the 3200 I believe)

But there is the thing that baffles me.......

As I understand it, it takes about 
12 minutes to scan a 6x7 negative.

On Tuesday I am shooting  13 people
using 120 film (10 exposures).

One roll per person.

130 exposures..............................

Where in the world would anyone have 
the time to scan all those negatives to make
proofs..............

Sure I understand that maybe a few
shots on each roll may not be "keepers",
but still that's a lot of negatives.............

It sure seems easier and less time consuming
to just go digitally form the start.

Or am I missing something here?
