I’ll second that, I opted for the multi focal lenses, (again insurance did net pay for them), best decision I made. Can see both distance and near 20/20. Only thing is when doing precision work you must have good lighting.

Amazing difference! At first, I thought my eye sight was just getting bad, it affected me mostly when snowboarding. My eyes are very sensitive and tear if there is the slightest bit of wind, so I was constantly lifting my goggles to see the terrain of the snow. Finally one day I was out with my wife in a parking garage and I had to ask her were the exit sign was. She yelled and said if I can not see it I should not be driving and I was to go to the eye doctor immediately. Well I held off a couple of more months till I had o sop driving a night. Finally dr. Says I have cataracts and they were very ripe. I opted for the multi-focal lenses and it was awesome! After the first I was done I noticed the wall was white, as I thought it was before. But when I looked through the bad eye it looked manilla colored. I can now see distance and read as well no glasses needed. Great experience, and couldn’t be less painless. Only discomfort was for the first couple of weeks sunlight bothered me and I had to wear sunglasses.

The consensus seems to be the Epson V600. Going to give it a shot. Thank you.

Ok, since everyone is asking what I would like to scan.
Mostly photos that were taken with both 35mm and 2.25 format.
Sizes from 3x5 to 8x10.

What scanner you recommend?
The printers that come with scanners, do not seem to cut it.
Also, does anyone recommend any particular software for scanning?

How do get around this. I have had times where they put my bag through the machine several times, and keep carrying it around the back of the counter, while screaming for me to move forward!

China, has some of the strictest security, however somehow seem to keep it all together and it runs exceptionally smooth! Note: the agents at China’s security are both competent and they actually ALL work. Unlike in the US. It reminds me of the old joke, where the road crew gets to the job site, but there are no shovels and they are all looking at each other trying to figure out what to do? The supervisors says to them “lean on each other until I can get the shovels here.”

They should at least have a high school degree! And if they do, I feel real sorry for the schools they graduated from. I have had them brake more items right in front of me than you can believe. It is amazing how the TSA in their countries runs so much smoother than here in the US.

Not sure, see how much of this matches your menu setup.

100% AGREE...they should at least be high school graduates, and if they are I feel real sorry for the schools they went to. I have had the brake more items right in front of me than you can believe. It is amazing how the TSA in their countries runs so much smoother than here in the US.

I travel quite frequently, never asked to remove my camera nor my Lense. I have not been asked to cover the batteries, but have heard this to be an issue and try to put one in the camera and the rest of them in checked baggage. In fact other than camera and lenses I put everything else in my checked bag. I Remove my iPad and/or laptop ( whichever one I am traveling with at the time). Remember, these they are just doing there job, and may not be finished with their training. If you ever get the opportunity to travel to China, Japan, Israel and a few others, their version of TSA is SO MUCH more efficient and faster than ours as their all of people actually work. Here as with it’s like a road crew in the US, you have one or two annoyed (that they have to actually work) employees doing their job.

Virginia City is an old mining town not very far away. It was a great old charm picture taking area last time I was there.

Oh- Sometimes Keystone is a good thing. It gives dynamic lines to tall modern structures. Theses are not architecturally correct but they make for nice advertising shots and annual report covers. I hope this helps! [/quote]

What book is the excerpt from that is shown in the pictures?

Thank you, I was looking at them, however they have several models. Which one do you have, and does it hold your phone securely?

That is why I rarely post, every time something is asked or mentioned there is this peanut gallery out there condemning them!!! All I did in was ask a simple question, then the first response started with the third degree!
