New Scanner

I bought an Epson Perfection 4180 photo scanner from a dude on Craigslist the other day and it seems pretty sweet so far, does both reflective scanning and negatives. I thought I'd share some of my test scans as they're all previously unreleased! :P


This is a sketch I did while we were camping at Stony Brook with Josh and Janelle. Deanna gave me a couple neat little sketchbooks as part of my birthday present, so I drew the random things sitting on the table near the campfire. The style is totally stolen from my sister when she does this kind of thing.

It does well at negatives so far, maybe lacking a bit in saturation on color film, but nice and sharp. Black and white comes out nicely, especially when you scan it as color film.

I had almost forgotten about these photos from the Albright-Knox. For some reason, the camera rewound mid-roll, so I only ended up taking 6 exposures. 




Ha, I gotta watch the dust on the scanner bed. Oh well. Still neat!
