I scanned on of my 6s7 shots on my 3200 and was reasonably pleased with the results. Then, just for grins, a friend of mine scanned the same transparency on his Imacon film scanner. The difference in sharpness and detail resolution was considerable. No comparison. A flatbed scan works with medium format, but it's far from optimum.
