I use the 4990 to scan glass negatives and have benn very pleased with the results. Scan them emulsion side down and the flip them horizontally in your edit software.

   So, I am in the market for another scanner and fast.  You can reply to me off group or on group.  How much more will I gain with the V700 with the dual lights is worth the extra $100. over the 4990?  I have set my limit at $500 so one is a little under and the other a little over.
    
   Any other suggestions?
