It was interesting to see that the new Silverfast 
multi-sampling feature gave the highest gain of Dmax with the 
3200 (of all the Epsons). Lasersoft pages. The sensor well 
size must suit the 3200 limited resolution better than on the 
newer models including the 4990.  So I'm quite happy with the 
3200 with all the mods I added, resolution on 4x5 is here more 
restricted by the Epson 10000 print output size. It will be 
replaced by a V700 or V750 (which one depends on what Vincent 
is able to squeeze out in quality from the last). I am not yet 
impressed by the first picture of the Epson wet mount holder. 
I think there's a good chance for a third party wet mount 
holder if the design and package is better. That could suit 
the V700 then as well.
