[filmscanners] SS 120 questions for current users

["Simon Lamb" <simon@sclamb.com>]

I just spent three hours with an SS 120 and the Imacon Photo.  The only
major difference that I found was in the colour fidelity when scanning
slides, in this case Kodak E100VS 6X6 slides.  Whereas the Imacon
representation of the slide was spot on in colour reproduction, the SS 120
was more washed out and the saturation had been lost.

Other than that it seemed to be an excellent unit, not as good as the Imacon
in the final scans (the Imacon seemed to show more detail and smoother
transitions even though it was working at 3200dpi and not 4000dpi.

Have any of you current SS 120 users notices colours not being reproduced
correctly and have you managed to fix this easily using the scanner
software?  Or am I going to need to do a lot of colour manipulation in
Photoshop?

Sorry to keep asking questions but I want to make sure I spend my money on
the right scanner as it is a lot of money.

Thanks.

Simon
