Yes, that's about right. > device may in fact be 1" along the 4k/8k side, and how relevant is that > really, compared to the output ppi (which is what we've been talking about I > believe)? My polaroid 7000 "does" 4K regardless of the size film (although in truth, the 7000 only officially supports 35mm). For larger film, the 8K is recommended because the difference is noticeable when the 4K points is spread out on a larger film.
