OOh pretty sweet Paul. Tones are very nice. And I'm sure it helps to start with a quality neg.

I?ve been using the 850 scanner for a week or so now, scanning some medium 
format negs just to see what it can do. I bought a  third-party film holder for 
medium format. It has anti-newton ring glass and flattens out the negs nicely. 
This pic is from a 2002 shoot with the 6x7 and the Pentax 165/4 leaf shutter 
lens. Flash fill from a small umbrella. I scanned it at 6400. That yields a 
file big enough to make a 48-inch wide print at 360 dpi. I downsized it to make 
a 13 x 19 prin. Looks great. Here?s a web sized image:

And a tighter crop:

BTW, I was unable to post for a week or more, but Doug seems to have fixed it. 
Seemed the server had me pegged as a spammer.
