[Leica] new Epson scanners

[don.dory at gmail.com (Don Dory)]

Frank,
I was thinking of the V700 in a different price point, it will retail beween
549 and 799.  The 9000 is about three times that and only goes up to medium
format, if you mix in some 4x5 and 8x10 then you will be looking for other
options.  For the 35mm and 120/220 shooter the 9000 would be at the top of
the list.
