You won't see anything from "high magnification" in PS, you're looking at a
72PPI JPEG... I don't believe that differences the tonality, which is what
the original comment was regarding, will change with high magnification.

I see a pretty large difference in the two on my calibrated high end 21"
monitor. The Nikon scan looks very flat, and the color bars for the Leaf
look correct, while the Nikons are way off. The difference is very obvious,
but, that difference isn't necessarily in the scanner, I would believe it
probably has more to do with the operator than the scanner.
Also, realize the Leaf scan was decimated from 5080 to 4000, which isn't a
good thing anyway...then again to 72PPI for the web image.
