I just got my Epson V600, I started to scam my 35 mm negatives, B&W and color.
It is very comfortable with the negative holder, but I noticed the quality is very poor. Scanned about 200 pictures and in all, I got this issue.
For most of the negatives I have also the printed photo, so I scan the photo and the results where better. From my understanding, the 35mm scans should be better but it is very grainy.
I saw many recommendations on this forum for this scanner for 35mm so I assume I'm doing something wrong, but I don't know what.
The negatives I scanned with 3200 (checked also 6400 but it is the same) dpi and the photo with 600 dpi and this is what I got:
