I have a UMax Astra 4000U when I was looking for a Flatbed for proofing. This
scanner was
the only one that had a lid which covered the whole page - US Legal. Was
within a price
range much the same as the epson 1600 (which ive been told is a double stepping
800dpi
scanner). It did scan at 1200dpi.
I needed to proof 6x17 negs.
Would say much the same comments as Dana.
The 4000U scanner suited my needs at a price where as the PL III was much
more expensive.
