joebt Posted December 11, 2006 Share #1 Posted December 11, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Is there much of an image quality difference between the COOLSCAN IV ED (LS40) and the COOLSCAN V ED (LS50)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted December 11, 2006 Posted December 11, 2006 Hi joebt, Take a look here Heelp Me Scan film. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
andybarton Posted December 11, 2006 Share #2 Posted December 11, 2006 I have no knowledge of the Coolscan IV, but most of the shots on my web site were scanned with a Coolscan V. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one if I needed a new scanner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdai Posted December 12, 2006 Share #3 Posted December 12, 2006 Is there much of an image quality difference between the COOLSCAN IV ED (LS40) and the COOLSCAN V ED (LS50)? 4 ED: 2900dpi optical res., 12-bit A/D, Density 3.6, USB 1.1 5 ED: 4000dpi optical res., 14-bit A/D, density 4.2, USB 2.0 Of course, the difference in image quality completely depends on "how you look at it".

joebt Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share #4 Posted December 12, 2006 I'm able to get the Coolscan IV for half the price of the coolscan V. Basically, I just need to scan negatives that will be used fo web viewing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted December 12, 2006 Share #5 Posted December 12, 2006 The Coolscan IV will be fine for that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
