I think the principal difference in costs for scanning glass plate
negatives as opposed to safety base or diacetate negs is the extra care
involved in handling them. We  encountered some difficulties with the
Newton Rings phenomenon in a recent project that required us to flip the
negative and use matting to protect the emulsion. [log in to unmask]
can provide some details on this.

 

I think the costs are less related to the actual scanning and more about
the costs of proper enclosures and storage of the glass....
