Re: filmscanners: Selecting a scanner
Hi All,
FYI, I am in the US.
Re the Polaroid 4000, I had a friend do a scan of a K64 test slide that I
purchased many
years ago. This slide has a black fabric background. A ball of white wool in
front of the
backgound exhibited a flare effect not present on the slide.
The same slide scanned by another friend on a CanoScan FS2710 did not show this
effect.
Re Nikon, I have concern regarding the reputed failing stepping motor.
I have not seen any comment re being able to adjust the histogram for a
selected area of
the prescanned
image, by using lightness and contrast controls. I would like to have this
feature for
both slides and negatives.
I appreciate the comments to date, and have not yet come to a decision.
Regards, John.
