      Hi guys. I am going to get an A4 scanner with which I want to scan mainly pencil drawings to be pulled into photoshop, but also to scan coloured work. So Im looking for a scanner that will scan work without big colourshifts or losing detail. I know this question has been asked bevore but I does anyone have a good scanner they can recommend? Thankyou for your help:)

        @Julia-Hegetusch It depends on your budget and what you are using the scans for but if you want a decent inexpensive scanner I got the Epson V39 a few years ago to scan watercolor paintings and it does a pretty good job of accurate color rendition. It was recommended by a number of watercolorists. Disclaimer — I am not creating gallery prints from my scans but mostly posting online so again, it depends on what you are doing with the scans.
