There are three scanners here: the Nikon LS8000, the Epson 
V700, the Umax Mirage II. The size increases from left to 
right and the quality decreases from left to right. With wet 
mounting on the first two and tweaking the focus on both you 
can get good results on both but the Nikon needs less work 
afterwards (sharpening), has a wider dynamic range and still 
more resolution. So 35 mm up to 6x9 is scanned on the Nikon. 
All are driven by Vuescan with the multi-sampling, 
multi-exposure on board. I think a tweaked Nikon LS9000 new 
or secondhand with wet mounting is equal or better than an 
Imacon and has ICE aboard. Above that a good, serviced, drum 
scanner with a good operator.

about multi-exposure but based on Silverfast
