[pure-silver] Re: Presenting silver images on the web

For the web it likely wouldn't make that much difference.  If the final product 
is  another print though, you are usually better off scanning the negative.  
Now so many variables come into play here.  First the scanner makes a great 
deal of difference.  A dedicated film scanner will most often do a better job 
with a negative than a flat bed scanner doing negatives.  A dedicated negative 
scanner is also going to cost much more and if you are on a budget a flat bed 
might meet your needs.  The larger format film you need to scan, the more 
expensive the film scanner.
