Hi Darrell, If you do mostly B&W, and occasional color, the Leafscan 45 is comparable, if not better at B&W, than the Imacon (and most any other scanner). They are 5080 for 35mm, 2540 for MF and 1200 for 4x5. They use a single ND filter for scanning B&W...where all other scanners scan B&W in RGB and convert. It is an "older" scanner, but works perfectly with current Windows and Mac OSs. They sell for around $2k in near perfect condition. Or, for around $500, you can get a Leafscan 35, which only does 35mm at 4000SPI. If you want more info on the Leaf, please contact me off-list.
