RE: [APML] Polaroid SS 4000 scan questions

[Jerry Lodriguss <jerry@astropix.com>]

It depends on how much data is on the original film, and what the end use 
of the image will be.

For techpan and E200, correctly exposed film with a lot of detail, 4K would 
be needed to capture all of the detail present.

For 800 or 1600, you don't need 4k.
