For 35 negs the resolution is 4800 dpi, for MF 3200 dpi (different optics within same scanner, as I understand). There is absolutely no statement that the resolution is interpolated! They explicitly say: "The dimage Scan Multi Pro has the highest scanning resolution of any scanner we tested to date (September 2001).... We confess we really weren't expecting to see more detail from the Dimage Scan Pro than we'd previously seen in the 4000 dpi scanner we'd reviewed, but the Dimage surprised us: There's clearly more detail visible in it's scans" [They tested the Nikon Coolscan8000 a few months before in June 2001] This is just opposite of what you claim to have read in this article! Sorry, I do not mean to offend, Knut
