[HUG ] Re: [HUG] Re: Epson V700 vs V750

Short of losing an arm and a leg in my attempt to buy the best possible scanner that I could afford, exactly what size limitation would I run into with the Epson V-750 Pro and the Microtek M1 ArtixScan?


Initially I wanted to buy a used or discontinued Imacon scanner, but have yet to find one that was within my budget. The Leafscan 45 was another option along with a new Nikon LS9000 scanner if I had to spent more then a $1500.

Of course I plan to use this newer scanner for my MF images. For 35mm, I have a Canon FS4000 scanner.

What I like about Vue Scan is that you can get a RAW scan, the equivalent of a RAW camera image. The RAW Vue Scan image is totally unadulterated by the Vue Scan software, just like the RAW camera image is unadulterated by the camera firmware. Lightroom/Bridge/Photoslop loves it and you can then process the image however you wish. And like camera RAW, those seemingly blocked highlights and 'black cat in a coal mine' shadows do indeed contain detail that you can pull out. Vue Scan will also make multiple passes in order to build-up more information in the o/p file (at least with my scanner - ArtixScan 120tf).

I also have VueScan Pro and will be doing some direct A/B comparisons. Should be interesting.
