This is not a scanner problem, but indeed having something to do with grain. If your film is indeed underexposed, there will be compensation that will take place to try to correct the exposure problem, but with the cost of showing more grain than usual. This is more true with positive film, than negative film. And being able to produce a file size that exceeds 100Mb, there is no digital camera that can produce such a file at this time. It is for this reason, film is better. To do better would mean to have a digital back for a medium format camera like for example the Hasselblad system. But then we are also speaking about the use of the Carl Zeiss lens; which is a class by itself. Period! Also if you crop your negative or positive film, ( the more cropped area, or getting close) will magnifiy the results to where you will see more grain. At any rate, Minolta has done great improvemnets with the 5400 film scanner, including the use of the solfware, so much I feel I was cheated when buying the Minolta Dimage Scan Multi at over $2000.00 just a few years ago. I fell perhaps I should of waited. I just question how good is the new version, the Multi Pro at 4800 dpi vs. 2800 dpi? See pic with the use of the Olympus Epic, it too came out sharp.<div></div>
