[filmscanners] RE: Noise in Polaroid SS 4000 scans

["" <snsok@cox.net>]

Harry,

How long have you had your scanner? Has it always done this or is it a new
problem? If you've had the scanner for a while, have you kept a dust cover
on it? Have you taken it apart to be sure the mirror isn't dusty?

I agree with the comment about not scanning at 2000 dpi. I have had bad
results when scanning at less than the full 4000 dpi?

What you are seeing is definitely not normal behavior.

Stan

Subject: [filmscanners] Noise in Polaroid SS 4000 scans


Hello,

I have a Polaroid SS4000. I find I have much noise in my scans, could
somebody look at the example I put on: www.vdkrogt.com/resources/test
and see if this is normal, a scanner hardware problem or a Vuescan
settings problem?

I can't scan with Insight because I have an Adeptec SCSI card in my Mac
G4 (it was originally installed on purchase of the machine by Apple and
shipped with OSX. A card that they don't support under OSX! Strange).

Kind regards,

Harry van der Krogt
