Digital BW, The Print

For me, the advantages of the V750 over the V700 are the software plus the
reflective and positive IT-8 targets which, through Silverfast, provide very
good color management. In addition, I do own a Kodachrome target for
scanning old slides. I purchased the V750 to replace my old Microtech 120tf
that has a failed board (no parts available). The V750 provides almost
comparable resolution to the 120. For 35mm, I still have a Minolta 5400
which does provide an honest 5,400 dpi and I use it for all my 35mm work.

I also have the V750. There are some 6x6 scans in my gallery at
http://jeffgoldner.zenfolio.com/movingwater - should be obvious which ones
(they are square!).

I used the stock Epson holder for these. I don't recall if I used Silverfast
to digitize or the Epson scanning software which works well and properly
finds the frames. Most of my 6x6 scans were at 4800 (probably overkill).
