In reply to timparkin:
Thanks Tim. I've several thousand images to go through. I can 'read' a b/w neg easily enough off a light table but for making final choices for expo/book, I'd need to see positive images, hence need to remake or make for first time, contact sheets.
I haven't yet decided whether to go for enlarger prints or digital ones. That's going to depend on price/quality, and I need to see/touch more prints to decide. It's possible some of the prints will be up to 6x4 feet; the smallest would be 20x30 inches.
Final prints would be sponsored, but I need to make decisions on what will be used and for that, good scans will be needed. I will look into the Minolta for that. Preparing those final prints might well need drums scans, and those would be done commercially.
Any thoughts on a decent, cheapish screen? Is using one of those colour sampling spiders still a thing to help setting up the screen? As I said, I've been out of the scanning game for two decades.
