I recently upgraded not through money but through ,,, the kindness of
strangers. So I didn't shop my higher end Bell & Howell reader printer.
However, to address the rather muddy query about making the film more usable:
1. If you computer-whizzerds can digi-scan (with OCR) off microfilm of 75+
year old newspapers I'll eat my ... website. Sounds like baloney to me. I
can barely get usable scans off the actual newspaper, let alone a film version
of same.
2. If you want a mass blowback provider - that is, if you want something
more usable than the film - then a place that has given me astoundingly good
service at astoundingly cheap prices is:
Image Processors
1744 Portland Ave.
Wallah Wallah, WA 99362 voice: 800-822-8238
They blowback 35mm film (some maps, mostly books and microfilm copies of photo
collections) at about 5 cents a page for an 8.5x11 xerox. I had some 16x20s
done a year ago - I think it was 20 cents a page.
