Buying guide
Essentially the same scanner as the V850, which adds a second set of film holders and SilverFast SE Plus with X-Rite i1Scanner (the V800 came with SilverFast SE). Often found significantly cheaper used. Same dual-lens system. Check both lenses, film holders, and anti-Newton glass inserts.
