>>2562870>>2562888Comments from a real test:
The resolution test using the USAF-testchart yields an actual avarage resolution of approximately 1700 ppi according to our resolution chart, the same value as the predecessor CanoScan 9000F. This comes up to about 17% of the rated value of 9600ppi. The attained resolution value is hence still too low to scan 35mm material for an output size larger than 13x18cm without degradation.
A scan of a 35mm slide at 1700 ppi yields an image file of approximately 4 megapixels. In order to reach these 1700 ppi, it is necessary to scan at 4800 ppi or more. At 4800 ppi we obtain an image file with approximately 32 megapixels. Of these 32 megapixels only 4 million actually contain information. The remaining pixels are simply duplicates.
In other words: Flatbed = Shit for scanning 35mm. v500, v600, 9000f etc = 1700dpi. A little better for a v700, v750, v800. DSLR scanning fucking destroys flatbeds for 35mm scanning.
