filmscanners: LS4000 stepper motor noise
When performing a scan on the LS4000 using Nikonscan 3.1, two motor noises
are heard: 1) a deep humming sound, and 2)a "stepping" noise that sounds a
bit like a cheap plastic metronome. This second noise changes cadence
depending upon the resolution chosen - the higher the resolution, the slower
the tick-tock. Interestingly, when using Vuescan, the humming noise is the
same but the metronome noise is either greatly reduced or gone altogether.
Are any of you LS4000 owners experiencing this? Thanks, John
