No! NO! Most likely worse that what you are getting when compared to
what is on film. Here's an example I did some time ago when I had a 2700
dpi scanner. The print scanned is a Kodak Royal print from a real photo
shop, not drugstore processing. Still, it is WAY poorer than the film scan.
Flatbed, yes, but scan the original film, not prints. Should be faster
anyway, as many frames of film can be scanned in one pass.

Do serious testing first. Many are pretty poor, clipping highlights and
shadows badly.

EV adjustment. My S110 2mp lived at -2/3 EV most of the time. As does my
current 6mp F30. As I posted the other day, 2mp is plenty for many shots
unless blowing them up over 8x10.
