I agree, I guess they are as suspected. Resolution is OK but
handling of contrast is bad.
I have use a scanner like that for 6x6 slides, and the results were
acceptable of the contrasts of the slide wasn´t too difficult.
Colour negatives are not as good.

I have an Epson 3170 and have found it good enough for my needs. I
don't print larger than 8x10 and it seem fine for that. I've
scanned 35mm
slides and negatives, as well as 6x9cm & 6x6cm negatives.
I have a couple of sample scans here:

For its price I thought it was excellent, although I believe its
now been
replaced by the 4870 (or something similar). I replaced a Minolta
Dual
Scan II with the Epson as I wanted the ability to scan medium format
negatives at a very reasonable cost.
