> A second hand DSLR setup is going to be roughly the same price or less.
And if you get one with Pixel Shift, you can get way higher resolutions than the 22MP they're offering (e.g. my cheapo Olympus gets 40MP JPEG or 64MP RAW from a 16MP sensor.)

However, a Bayer-filtered sensor has lower color resolution, since each pixel only sees one color. So the pixel shift really helps quite a bit here since the sensor (and Bayer array) are shifting relative to the film multiple times per exposure.
High-quality film scanners maintain color resolution by using linear sensors without Bayer filtering. But they’re slow and expensive.
[Image resolution is a very complicated topic](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_resolution) and megapixel count, or even lines/mm does not tell the full story.
Then it’ll do a 16 or 32 shot stack in order to do the same thing but with more resolution.
