[filmscanners] RE: Newish Digital Tech
Nikon film scanners use one broadband linear CCD and three colors of
illumination. I believe the light sources are LEDs, and since LEDs have
fairly narrow spectral bands (narrower than the typical filters over
tri-colored CCDs), they have more metamerism (although this can be solved
with proper profiles).
