Re: [Digital BW] K3 vs. quad (Was Follow-up ...)

Hello Paul,

Thanks for posting these.  FWIW I can see some finer detail resolution
in your Standard ABW 2400 than in Tyler's 9800 shot.  Perhaps there is
a difference in the 9800 driver.

I also see some fine detail in your Standard ABW 2400 shot that is not
present in any of your other examples.

In your shots, near the bottom there is a large white area shaped like
a boomerang.  The upper arm of that shape terminates in a point near
the left edge.  In the gray area just below the end of that arm, in
the Standard 2400 shot you can see two dark horizontal lines.  These
are not as clearly defined in the other shots.  Also compare that same
area on on Tyler's shots. 

The ABW 2400 shot seems to hold up well.  Is this a fair comparison to
Tyler's 9800 shot, having been done with different scanners?

Regards,
Clayton
