scanners that can scan 8-x0 negatives

i have been using a refurb epson 4870 for the better part of a decade now and while i love it,
the scanner is starting to act strange so i am thinking of replacing it
with another epson refurb. are there any sleepers out there that might be a good value?
these days i am shooting a lot of trichromes and soon 8x10 ones, so i will need
something that can take that size film.

i ask about a good value because i dont need or want top of the line, ( i have been making large prints made from the 4870 with no issues and it is far from the top ). thanks for your suggestions.

The new Epson 850 and 800 will push the prices of the 750 and 700 down. Any of them are probably your best bet for an inexpensive scanner to scan 8x10.

thanks for your suggestion larry!

Are there Epson 800 and 850 in production r will be released sooner or later?

I scan 8x10 with an old 4990 which does a decent job. These might be cheaper than the newer 700 and 750.

From British Journal of Photography: "At the time of writing Epson had not released details of pricing and availability."

I use an Epson 750 Pro

thanks for the suggestions. when i get the $$ and my scanner takes the dirt nap i will keep them all in mind.
i downloaded a new "updated" driver and it seems to have cleared up some of the wonkiness
so my fingers are crossed ...
