I can't vouch for the exact Dmax measurement of the ArtixScan 1800f, but my
experience is it has far more than other expensive flatbeds I have used in
the past.   It is better than my Poloroid SS4000 slide scanner for shadow
detail.  I am glad it is a drawer scanner, which greatly reduces the amount
of glass and dust between the lens and trannie. The 1800ppi is real. I am
very happy with my choice.
