Scanning 4x5

[gnuyork]

I do actually have two 4x5 enlargers (and have never used them yet) but for 4x5 scans I use the Epson v750. I wish there was a dedicated 4x5 film scanner.

I have the 9000 too, again haven't used it. Haven't even opened the box yet. How's that for procrastination. Maybe that's what I'll do today.

Been experimenting with sheet film, in 2.25 x 3.25 and 6.5 x 9cm sizes with a Medalist II. These are the largest size negatives that will fit into my Nikon Coolscan 9000 film scanner.

Really enjoying the "Ansel Adams-esque", experience of shooting sheet film, the Zone system, and the larger negatives, and am thinking about plunging into 4x5, but since I no longer have a wet darkroom, I wonder, how do folks handle 4x5 negatives?

If you shoot 4x5, and don't have a darkroom, what are you using to scan your negatives, or how are you creating prints?

Best,
