Nice site Roger. I don't know about your scanner, but your photos
are worth aiming for.
I have bought the Minolta Scan Elite (2820dpi) to replace my Scan
Dual (2348dpi), and the difference is quite startling - partly
because of the increased number of pixels, partly because of the
option for more than one scan/sample I suspect. I have already
posted my reasons for not going for a higher resolution etc...
I will now have to revamp my website after having seen Roger's ...

Well, these 4000dpi scanners sound like they're worth having, but as Tom
said the 2700dpi ones certainly, er, leave you more money to spend on
film, shall we say? I've got an Acer Scanwit, and I've been very
pleased with the results. I bought a Jessops USB scanner before the
scanwit and it was absolutely awful - grainy, noisy, useless on anything
even slightly underexposed - but the Scanwit has given me no cause for
complaint. Required a little bit of tinkering to get ideal colour
balance but once that was done (and it's all explained beautifully at
http://www.photoscientia.co.uk/) it's all been plain sailing.
The web's not really ideal for demonstrating sharpness, but you can see
some of my shots that have been scanned on the Scanwit at
