I run the Sprintscan 4000 user's group mailing list, which you can check out at: http://www.topica.com/lists/ss4000/read I'm very happy indeed with this machine. The extra dpi over the LS 2000 makes a lot of difference IMO and again IMO your leica lenses deserve it! If you're interested in making prints bigger than 11x14 I don't think it really has competition at the moment, though the Nikon LS3000 (4000 dpi) may well change that when it finally arrives. - -- Johnny Deadman http://www.pinkheadedbug.com
