Well this is not really Epsons fault - just look at
the prices - the 1200 and 1640 Perfection are cheap consumer machines
compared to hi quality machines: look what the Linotype scanners cost, or the
dedicated Medium format Film scanners - 1500 $ - 3500 $. The 1200 perfection (I
have it too) are something like 250 $ - they are fine for flatbed stuff - they
are even good at it. Transparency is another thing....
I am curious what the 2450 will be like, but my
hopes aren´t too high. BTW, the Epson "Expression" line of scanners is already
at a higher quality - and price - level...
greetings Bernhard

But like you I had a Perfection 1200 which was
hopeless. I then borrowed a 1640 which was disappointing, so I've
rather lost faith in Epson's scanners.
