The 14MP Kodak gives 81MB 4536 x 3024 Tiffs at 16 bits. The CMOS sensor
has a 12 bit dynamic range.
This probably would give better pix than any but the finest films
scanned at 4000 dpi, though drum scanners at higher dpi might improve
the system resolution of faster films.
But why doesn't Kodak support more mounts than just Nikon?
