I own a 2710 and didn't buy the LS-30 because of the price differential at the time. IIRC, it was $cdn880 vs $cdn1300-1700 (there were two Nikon's that were $cdn 500 apart I don't recall which one was the LS-30), and it came with PhotoShop LE, which I would have needed on the Nikon side (since then I took advantage of a deal between my employer and Adobe and upgraded) In test scans of my slides they came out with results indistinguishable on my output (HP 895 or Web). My retailer sold both so I came in with some slides a zip disk. ICE would have been nice, but it is needed on so few of my slides it was not worth a 60% price increase.Had price been out of the running I'd have bought a Nikon scanner, simply for the addition of ICE and the track record Nikon has in these devices compared to Canon's. regards Dave -Original Message-From: Jan Copier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Saturday, November 18, 2000 8:27 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: filmscanners: NikonLS30 or CanoScan2710?

I owns a LS-30 and IMHO the ICE is something extremely useful . I think Canon is missing ICE. Sincerely.

Based on what I found when I asked the same question, you will receicve answers from people who selected and have used only the LS-30, some who have only used the Canon, and a third group who have tested or compared both. It really comes down to what you want to spend in $$$, the bits/channel and resplution you can get for the $, the software packages you get with the hardware, like ICE, and viewing any comparisons on sites like Tony Sleep's. Though the companies seem to want you to buy without thought and use only their marketing information, it is best to wait for as much information as you can tolerate. The companies seem to feel that they do not need to have you get the information to lay out such a "paltry sum" as $US 1,000. (In my opinion, a purchase costing more than one week of my wifes jaunts to the super market is not a "paltry sum." Have patience, learn as much as yopu can, and buy the unit that best satisfied your needs. I did and I bought an LS-30 after its price dropped 50% and my saving for it reached the price. I also bought Vuescan to use with it. In the end will be your call. I do not regret mine.
