Try projecting your slides to see if the results are comparable. I think it's been shown that even a 4000 PPI scan won't *fully* resolve a 35mm slide. Plus, you may introduce other variables, like film flatness and scanner focus, that are bypassed when you project the original to a large enough size, focus precisely, and take a very close look. In my experience even the best scans don't come close to the effect from a nice, big projection.

Hi Morgan,

I was going to do that - if I can find a round-to-it. The projector is packed up in a box in the basement closet where I put it 25 years ago when we moved into this house. Guess that shows how much I look at slides. :-)

Later,
Johnny
