[filmscanners] Re: Interferences
As long as we are schmoozing about cables, I will put in a reminder to be
wary of cheap Firewire cables. A few months ago, I was having some
intermittent problems with my Nikon LS-4000. The source turned out to be a
3m FW cable that I had installed, so that I could move the scanner to a
table next to my desk. The cable was a non-branded item purchased from an
online store. Don't know if the problems were caused by interference, or
signal degradation in the cable. I replaced it with a cable purchased from
the local Apple store, and the scanner now works fine.
Interestingly, the Apple FW cables are much thinner than the others I have
seen.
