Hey guys, I wrote a new article! In this article I will go over my workflow for photos taken on film rather than digital. I will be using software suite Nikon Scan 4, and will go over the settings I use for scanning with the Nikon Super Coolscan 4000 ED. This article will be most of interest to anyone using Nikon Scan 3 or 4 with any of the Nikon Coolscan film scanners. Some features and options will vary per scanner but most will be the same. It will also be interesting for people who use other scanners and software but will need to take this information as is and ‘translate’ it into -
Hallo zusammen, dies ist mein erster Beitrag hier im Forum... :-) Nachdem Nikon Scan 4 unter Intel Macs nicht mehr installiert werden kann, such(t)e ich nach einer Möglichkeit, meinen Coolscan V ED zu betreiben. Dabei bin ich auf die Silverfast 8Software gestoßen und habe mir die Demoversion installiert. Nun scheint die Software nicht in der Lage zu sein, einen kompletten Negativstreifen in einem Durchgang als Vorschau zu scannen. Gleiches bei Vuescan, was ich ebenfalls versucht habe. Unter Nikon Scan ging dies jedenfalls noch. Oder habe ich da was verpasst? Auch die Kurzanleitung gibt

Silverfast or Vuescan? Nikon no longer supports their Coolscans with a Windows 7 driver. Grrrrr! For those of us who scan our film, does anyone have a preference between these two products (or any other one)? Thanks! Steve

My Coolscan V went out of order about 15 month back. After ignoring him for that long, I finally gave it a final try and opened it. Some screws are hidden under the rubber feet. Thanks to the nicely printed circuit board, I quickly found out where the fuse is. The specification on the board says T2AH 250V. Not really an electronic wizard, I however concluded after some internet checks, that this requires a 2A, 250V fuse, "träge" (don't know how to translate that in this context, maybe "slow").

Not that I post here all that often, but I've been hiding away for the last few months playing with my 'new' Coolscan IV It has taken me quite some time (and forum searching) to extract decent images from negs and slides but I think I'm improving. I have a number of slides of my father's to scan (dating from the early 1950's I believe, taken with his IIf), many of which have badly degraded. I notice that some of them are in what look like aluminium slide mounts (of the glass sandwich type) with the Leica emblem on them! I have tried scanning them but have terrible problems with Newton ri

I'm considering the hitherto unthinkable: switching from Vuescan to Silverfast. I just want some opinions from users of Silverfast. Background: I've been pretty satisfied with Vuescan the last few years. But one scenario in particular exposes a problem I keep having trying to export totally flat, linear, color-negative scans: when the entire image is high-key (over-exposed or simply an image that's intentionally just one narrow section of the full tonal range), I find that pretty much nothing I do will give me a scan that is correctly flat and at the same time only fills the correct part of
