I use the V700 for both 35mm and 120. I find that with a good negative I can get fairly decent quality even from the 35mm and have printed up to 10x15 without issue.
Still I would prefer a better scanner for 35mm if I could justify the cost.
I use the Epson scan software and scan to tif files with minimal adjustments and USM turned off. From there I import into Lightroom, sharpen, adjust contrast etc and output as jpg.
For me the biggest challenge is film flatness with 120. I find that getting uniform flatness across a film strip is hard with either the stock V700 120 film holder or even with the Better Scanning one. There are methods to combat this however it can be quite fiddly.
Below is a recent example, scanned at 2400ppi (6x6 so it's 120 film). A sample at 100% is attached too.
