I shall replace my scanner too and I'm just looking and comparing Epson and Plustek. The basic Plustek Opticfilm 7400 is really cheap and the technical advice of a technical person in Plustek was that for B&W and Photoshop work the choice should be the 7400, the iSRD function is not adviced or necessary for B&W. The Plustek inconvenient is that you should scan 1 negative at once!. On the Epson range, I think V700, or even V600 and V500 are very good scanners. Any experiences with the Plustek 7400 in the List? cheers Lluis El 28/10/2011, a las 17:57, Nathan Wajsman escribi?: > Certainly good enough with MF and larger.
