Commercial scanning of 120 BW film

Commercial scanning of 120 BW film

Hi--

I'm looking for a US-based lab to mail 120 BW film from my new Holga.
I would like to get high-quality scans and negatives.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

It would make more sense to get a cheap (US$150 or so) Epson flatbed* and
scan them yourself. After 5 or 10 rolls, you will have saved more than the
price of commercial scanning. Check out w w w .scantips . com for an introduction
to scanning.

*: Make sure it does medium format. Some models might only do 35mm. And some
models can't scan film. Get a model with Digital ICE if you can.
