I too scan all my negatives with my Epson 1600 and I'll stack my prints up against anyone, and I mean anyone. One thing I have learned about scanning though, is to scan everything extremely flat. Then I add brightness and contrast with photoshop. I would give you an example but several of my photos have been submitted to FOM2 and thus must be anonymous. Try the above tip and I have also learned it's easier to dodge or should I say it looks better to dodge than to burn in photoshop. Anything burned looks a little muddy.
