Thanks for all the answer, and please keep them coming.

I intend to use the prints for prints, initially personal, with time hopefully also for sale. I want to use film and digital side-by-side, as well as digitise my old films.

Can anyone compare the Coolscan V and Coolscan 5000?

Btw, the scanner is NIB, I believe never used. The guy who owns it bought two when the model was discontinued. I see them going for $700 used on eBay, so the price is not that bad. Seen in that light, and given that the Coolscan 9000 costs about €2200 around here, the Minolta+Epson V750 is still a great deal, plus I get a flatbed scanner.
