Christopher,

They may be scanned at 72 dpi, but the size of the scan is what matters. For
all my wedding work the negs may be scanned at 72 dpi, but there are 14MBs of
it, so when I convert it to 250dpi I find I have a print size of about 10x7".
Their scanner will also scan at 25MB and 40MB. I think it will also scan
around 7MB, but I don't use it. For my enlargements over 14x10 I scan the neg
myself on a Polaroid ss4000.

Thanks for the compliment
Regards,
Rob Heyman
