Re: New scanner

[Paul Stenquist]

I can see details of the grain when scanning 6x7 film on my Epson 3200. 
When printing it out on my Epson 1200 printer, the resolution is as 
good as I can get from the local pro labs on a C-Print. But perhaps the 
labs aren't all that good. (They do produce most of the work for some 
local big name studios and for the car companies in-house studios.)

Have you ever scanned at 8000dpi with an Imacon or similar scanner,

compared the results to a consumer scanner like the Nikon Coolscan
