Subject: [Leica] Plustek scanner

Hi,

Does anyone have an experience with the Plustek film scanner? On the paper
it shows interesting performance (7200x7200ppi non interpolated) for about
190 Euros inc. VAT (should be about 200USD plus tax). It is described as
giving 16 bits per channel (48 bits per colour pixel) but this does not
say what is the maximum density it is able to measure - which is closely
related to the noise level in dark (slides) or bright (negs) parts of the
images. Any comparison with the Canon, Nikon slide/neg scanners and the
recent Epson high-res flatbed with adapter?

Thanks

Jean
