Thanks for the info and image sample.
I finally opted out for the Epson 750, and the Coolscan 5000.
It's being acquired through a grant proposal, if it comes through.
It had to be turned in by 3PM today.
If I had my choice, I would be seriously looking at a Kodak IQSmart  
scanner.
Even a used one, but with a warranty, would do.
Mmmh, maybe there is a possibility of getting one at auction.
I'm not shy about taking advantage of a business with busted knee caps.
