The Coolscan 5000ED scans at 4000DPI max. And has been discontinued. The Coolscan 9000 ED medium-format unit is also 4000DPI (according to the Nikonusa.com web site product archive). And it has now also been discontinued (that's a change since I last looked). Basically, nobody is making a pro-level desktop scanner any more. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b@xxxxxxxx; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info
