[filmscanners] RE: New price on Flextight Photo in UK

["Hemingway, David J" <HEMINGD@polaroid.com>]

Geoff,
The SS120 compares favorably with the Precision II. Ian Lyons did a
comparison and posted on his web site. I have talked to several customers
who have evaluated both . The consensus is the Precision II is better but
only by a narrow margin and it is 2 or 3 times the price. Imacon's software
is very good, on the same level as Silverfast but some find the film carrier
a pain for 35mm. Personally I feel pretty good to be in the same ballpark as
the Precision at 2 or 3 times the price.
David

Hi David,

That prompts the question, how does the Imacon compare to the Polaroid
SS120? Bearing in mind that there is still a significant price difference
and that you are allowed to be a fraction biased.... :-)

I own a Flextight and called Imacon Tech support to find out if sharpening
was shut of at 0. They told me it was not, I asked why and they told me the
programmers thought "everyone" would want some sharpening. I confirmed this
with Andrew Rodney.
