Why not just have contact sheets made? Easier than all that scanning..

The prints are so bad that I can't tell which ones are keepers and 
which ones aren't, so I'm going to scan all the negatives to 
the "preview" stage, eight at a time (they're cut into strips of 
four) on my Epson 3200.  If I save a dozen to a TIFF file, I'll be 
happy.  But 100 keepers?  I'm good, but not THAT good.

And actually it's 114 negatives.  I get 38 shots on a 36-exp. roll.
