John,
Perhaps I was not clear in my earlier comment about the Epson 4870.
It has a transparency scanning area of about 6X9", allowing scanning
in one pass of 5X7" negatives. That is one of the main reasons I
purchased it instead of the now deeply rebated 3200. I have been
working in 5X7" format for more than twenty years and have a very
large inventory of existing B&W and color negatives and color slides
that I would like to scan and print. The 3200 has a transparency
scanning area same as the earlier 2450, i.e. only 4X9".
