BIG is right, Dave -

When I scanned a few of my favorite AFT and C&TS slides at max 4,000 dpi resolution the yield was files of almost 9,000x11,000 dpi — big enough for a 37×45 inch print at 240 dpi.  In full color the files are 267+ MB each, which puts a real strain on the 'puter when editing one of THOSE in Phraud-O-Shop!!   OTOH, the Mamiya lenses were really sharp — see [ngdiscussion.net] for a good example.
