[Genealib] microfilm reader-scanners?

[Elaine Hayes]

We also have an ST200X from ST Imaging.  It is really nice and I'd recommend it to anyone.

      We have a unit from ST Imaging.   It is super cool.   It will not only scan and print microfilm and microfiche, but also photographs, books, negatives, and slides.   We only charge if someone prints a copy.   Otherwise they can save to a jump drive or email it to themselves.

  Our old Minolta microfilm reader-printer is getting very old and cranky.   We are considering upgrading to a microfilm reader-scanner-printer, which would allow our patrons to save their "printouts" to a disk or portable drive. (assuming we can obtain a grant to cover at least part of the costs, but that's another question) 
  
How many of you have these?   What brands are they, how reliable are they, and what did you pay for them. 
  
Just doing a simple search leads me to understand that this equipment will run us at least $4000 to $5000 (and probably more, if we can get some of the bells and whistles)
