Yes the Minolta DSMP can scan Xpan at 4800, and also
offers excellent Dmax. I utilise the multi-format
holder for Xpan, but others have adapted 35mm holders.

Thanks for all the reply's. At the moment, I'm considering opening up the scanner
but on second thought I'll leave it alone for now. I may just get a better scanner.
I'm rather disappointed with the limited D-range of this scanner, which is really
only about 3.2. I'm not sure if mirror alignment would produce what I see, but
that is a thought. There is a slight trapezoidal shape to the scan, which is what
I would expect from a crooked mirror.

Can the Minolta scan multi pro scan the full length of an Xpan frame at
4800 dpi, or does it have to be scanned as MF 3200 dpi? Xpan frame is
24x65mm.

Hi!

Minolta DSMP has an option to scan MF at 4800 PPI, but you have probably to 
utilize the MF holder.

I have a DSMP, but I mostly scan 6x7.

Best regards

I got a Dmax-Dmin of about 3.4 with my LS-2000; I would expect better from
the 4000.
