Re: filmscanners: Re: Nikon Super coolscan 4000 Problems
That's exactly my findings as well. I have had my Nikon 8000 for about a
month and I was anxious to try it with ICE. The first negative I scanned
without ICE and I scanned the exact negative with ICE. The only changes
that I made was the ICE portion. In my opinion there was noticeable quality
difference between the two. I preferred the scan WITHOUT ICE and have not
used it since.
Just my viewpoint.
