I like the BW. Howtek is definitely better than the V850. The V850 is granier and grittier. The tones look better on the Howtek.
The greater sharpness in the Howtek scan makes a HUGE difference in tonal and object separation. That is the main barrier to getting a great scan from the Epson - sharpness.
That is true about training the Epson. If you make adjustments with the Aztec software you can store those adjustments as a calibration file and then do final scan using that calibration file. End result is a linear gamma curve as out out for image. This makes adjustments in PS much better as you’re not starting with a baked in formula so to speak.
Let me run the Epson file thru Nik define. It is for removing noise from digital images but works well with scans. I ran the Howtek thru define so that may account for some of the differences.
From a recent trip to Tucson and Saguaro National Park - beautiful area, and white pleased with this image of the some of the range of cacti that are there.
