My word, I think you've got it. <G>. My new Canon 3200 scanner is doing
an excellent job of copying 80 year old photos, 50 year old colour
slides, magazine articles, newspaper clippings etc. Photoshop Elements 2
enhancements when printed on my new Canon i560 printer are getting rave
reviews from friends, rellies & clients.
My Fuji camera is also acting well and quality of output is excellent
now I've got used to the settings etc.
