andybarton Posted February 6, 2007 Share #2 Posted February 6, 2007 I am finding it difficult to see any banding on tyhis PC screen, but will look again on the Mac at home this evening. What software are you using to scan? What scan settings are you using? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jeffryabt Posted February 6, 2007 Share #3 Posted February 6, 2007 I'm using Nikon Scan version 4.00 on a Mac. As to the settings I use, don't know, I've tryed so many... banding always seems to be problem. Sorry I this posted this in the wrong Forum> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted February 6, 2007 Share #4 Posted February 6, 2007 As you can see, I have moved it to the Film Forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolo Posted February 6, 2007 Share #5 Posted February 6, 2007 Hi, To remove any banding, set CCD Scan Mode to Super Fine Scan by ticking the box. Multi sample rate is OK with x1, but if it's an inmportant scan, I'll set it to x8. Use ICE on colour or C41 type films only. Yahoo has a Forum dedicated to this scanner that is very useful on occasions. Regards, Rolo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted February 6, 2007 Share #6 Posted February 6, 2007 The banding is obvious now. Rolo's advice is, as always, very good. 16x oversampling is available on this scanner, but will take ages to do, but give the best results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

guywalder Posted February 8, 2007 Share #8 Posted February 8, 2007 I use the single ccd option for all scans when there are dark areas in the film I scan with my 8000. I find the differences between the oversampling options are quite subtle, but the scan time goes up dramatically, so 4x is my usual option...
