We actually could write at higher resolutions, but with the 32 film, and
this was to a 8X10 sheet, we didn't see higher levels of detail, just
higher write times. I could be wrong mind you but I am pretty sure the
head of our department was adamant that this was straight from Kodak.

Re: High Resolution Scans
Hmmm. I'm not sure that's correct. Back in the film recorder day you could
image at 2k or 4K to 35mm film and you certainly could see the difference
between 2048 DPI and 4096 DPI on 35mm film. Heck that was imaging with a
CRT
too.
Didn't the LVT have res 60 and 90 as well?
