Resolution is not the only thing. Check out the link I posted
previously. The Imacon scan was done at 3600ppi and the drum scan
at 2400ppi. The drum scan was indubitably better even on the

Did you miss the statement below .. ? I've said it a couple of times:
As I said, the advantage of scanning devices like the Imacon is
primarily tonal rendering, not significant image data.
The imaging quality of the Imacon goes beyond anything available for
the consumer price range, regardless of resolution.
Yes, a high end scanner like the Imacon does a better job. If I could
afford one, I'd buy it.
