 I use the Epson EC800-C to do all my scanning. It is directly supported by
 ADPro and will do 800dpi. However it has the ability to do 1600 dpi using
 the zoom mode. I've had great results both in creating bitmaps and 
 two color images for importing into Pixel 3D pro. However I need to use
 Pixel 3D 2.0 on occasion because something broke in the Pro version.
 The Scanner cost me about 1200.00(I got one of the very first one)
 and prices have dropped a little. The software to allow ADPro to use
 it was $200.00 . 2.5 of ADPro may support it on it's own but I can't
 say for sure. While it is a lot of money it complements all the work
 you do on the computer from DTP to DTV. It scans images at 24bits
