Imacon Film Scanner
Buying film scanner is often the first step in transitioning from film to digital photography. I used a combination of an Imacon Flextight scanner and a Fuji Pictrography printer before going to a digital capture system.
For my money, the Imacon scanners are the best on the market. Aside from drum scanners, they produce the highest quality scans I've seen. I still use my Flextight scanner for my fine art photography and stock photography.

Researchers are using remote digital cameras to help with the sudy of loons in Maine. I'm sure it's helpful for scientific research, but I doubt (and hope) that it will every replace the dedicated photographer waiting for days in a blind for just the right shot.
