I have a Canon Canoscan FS2710 it is Scsi and has APS functionality.

I bought it for scanning my university portfolio. However I have not used
i=
t
since then and it is in almost brand new condition. Box and everything.

Never tried it with APS though .. suggest you google and see if it meets
your needs.

If  anyone has / gets a scanner with APS capability I would be=20=20
interested in borrowing it (for cash) for a week of aps scanning. (If=20=20
it can do a roll unattended)
Or does anyone know a cheap aps scanning service as I've got loads
and=20=20
it would be good to get all old photos on computer.

Thanks,

Martin
