Hi. Would be interested to hear your opinions about both models, their real-world comparison specifically. I used to have IV ED (LS-40) using it intensively for over 2 years so far. Generely satisifed by it, but recently, made an endeavor to start wotking with image stock agencies and their requirement is 4000 dpi scans out of 35mm format, so the question raised is about possible upgrade to either V ED or 5000 ED. I've learned though their specs, both have 4000 dpi, V ED does 14bit per color, 5000 - 16 bit and features some upgarded CCD sensor. But what bothers me is whether 5000 does really worth the 500$ expense over V ED in real world ? Does 14 -> 16 bit per color channel make a real difference together with its upgraded CCD ?
What do you say ? Regards, Alex www.zabrovsky.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
