Of course we don't. I've seen many a photographer driving a nice car who could have easily driven a functional cheaper one and then owned a "better" camera. Or could have eaten out less.
Look, I'm not trying to beat some stupid semantic drum here, or make some insane universal value judgment. I'm trying to have a discussion about scanners with some boundaries. Surely you can see some kind of point in selecting equipment/process for a purpose and not just buying "the best" in all things, all the time? Where would the time be for shooting?
I understand we all have our requirements, and they all differ. However if we all have a discussion and don't express those requirements (in real terms, not "my requirement is the best possible", which would just result in not getting anything done) then the discussion is futile. If we only focus on the extreme cases, then the discussion completely ignores our own general requirements.
So, you're saying the 750 resolution is not good enough for an 8x10?
