I bought a scanner a little while back since I kind of wanted one, and more exactly, I wanted to scan some old photos and film. I found that if I really wanted them to be done well, I'd probably send them to someone professional. I had the hardest time with the film. Trying to scan it was painful in that you really must know how to get the settings right to have color matching work out correctly. I took the old picture itself that came from the film and scanned it and it looked way better! I also had a lot of problems with dust particles on the negative. More so than the image itself.

I'm not sure I'd be okay with sending my negatives to Bangalore though. That's a bit worrying.
