Conclusion: If I will have a slow ,banding , and even slower scanner, if I
will get rid of the banding - my first choice is Nikon LS 8000.
Also add to the conclusion: a scanner who not can scan a film sharp over the
whole area ( if the film is not mounted in a glass frame).
Do I get this scanner for free ?????
