Here's a direct comparison of 6x7 negs scanned on an epson 3200 flatbed and an Imacon professional film scanner. The lens was the 300/4 and the stop was f32, because a lot of depth of field was required here. There was some low lying fog in the vicinity as well. So it's not the sharpest 6x7 neg you'll ever see, but the scan comparison is very revealing. Know too, that I had been scanning 6x7 negs with the 3200 for quite a while at this point, And I was very careful to eliminate negative curl and worked hard to get the best scan possible. The samples here are 100% crops from the digital files.
