[QUOTE="aroy, post: 358871, member: 16090"] If you have only 35mm film or slides to scan, then the 60mm macro with an copy adapter ring is the way to go with FF sensor. For DX an extra extension is needed, as the rig is 1:1, where as for DX you need about 1:1.5. If you have larger negatives, then the rig becomes more complicated. At 24MP you are digitizing at much higher density than a good film scanner. For prints any good flat bed scanner is more than enough - my HP 3-in-1 ($150 printer) does the job perfectly. [/QUOTE]
