I have been thinking about getting back into MF, especially given what Bronica ECs are going for on Ebay at this point. What is stopping me is the price of a MF film scanner. Given that recent posts indicate that true resolution on a flatbed is 2-3 times lower than a comparable flim scanner, I wonder how adequate they are in practice for scanning 120 film. Do people get 8X10 prints, for example, that they consider satisfactory? Put differently, would I see an improvement versus 35mm scanned on a film scanner if I used one of the better flatbeds and 120, all things equal. If so, a flatbed, which is always useful, might be a reasonable stopgap until I can replace my LS 2000 with a true MF film scanner. Steve
