I originally couldn't get the Nikon Scan software to work.
A complete uninstall and registry cleanup and re-install fixed this.
The Nikon Scan software does make an impressive difference.
I've uploaded the the images to my original page:
http://www.core.no/~hts/photos/scanning.html
The colour balance also seems completely different on the two
files, with the Vuescan having a distinct red/orange tint.
I don't know what Nikon Scan is doing, I might well be som sort
of blur, but if it is it isn't very noticable in the image to
my eye.
Maybe Ed could do the same with Vuescan?
When installing the Nikon Scan software v 2.5.1 i noticed this in
the readme:
"4.2. Noise problem when Digital ICE on
Occasionally a strange noise pattern appeared around the edge
of an image when you used Digital ICE.
Now this pattern has been reduced."
I can see this noise quite clearly when using Vuescan, but
nothing shows with Nikon Scan. Ed?
Thanks for the tip Bruce.
