Actually, that's not so fortunate. Larger formats need lower
resolutions, and 35mm needs anything from 1600-4800 dpi scanning to look
good in print. Also, it's really only C41 (colour negative) and E6
(Ektachrome/Fujichrome/etc) that scan well. Silver B&W and Kodachrome
can be bleah.

The latest Epsons can handle these resolutions.

They're all about the imaging. Just don't mention Linux ... ;-)
