Digital BW, The Print

Manual,

The Epson 3200 + Mamiya 645E camera will give you a visible 
improvement over what you have right now.

The 645E is about the best bargain as far as new MF camera are 
concerned and the Epson 3200 cannot be beaten in its price range. 
This is a great combination for your stated intented use. 

I am preparing an exhibition and will be scanning 6x4.5 b&w negs with 
an Epson 3200 for printing to A3+ size with an Epson 1160 + MIS FS-N 
quads inks. I have scanned 6x4.5, 6x7 and 6x9 negs with the Epson 
3200 and I find that the sharper the negs the sharper the scans come 
out.

So go ahead, you're on the path to making great prints.
Cheers,
Andre
