Quoted By:
Here are some crops from the Nikon CoolScan and Epson V500.
This is the same image of film on both scanners.
100% crop.
The Nikon is unedited straight from the scanner at 4000dpi.
And the Epson is unedited straight from the scanner at "4800"dpi.
You can see the CoolScan has the edge in detail and sharpness.
It also shows the film grain, where the epson is so soft it shows nothing.
