[filmscanners] Re: Nikon LS4000 alignment - Scan multipro?

2004-08-09 Thread W Shumaker
Thanks for all the reply's. At the moment, I'm considering opening up the scanner
but on second thought I'll leave it alone for now. I may just get a better scanner.
I'm rather disappointed with the limited D-range of this scanner, which is really
only about 3.2. I'm not sure if mirror alignment would produce what I see, but
that is a thought. There is a slight trapezoidal shape to the scan, which is what
I would expect from a crooked mirror.

Can the Minolta scan multi pro scan the full length of an Xpan frame at
4800 dpi, or does it have to be scanned as MF 3200 dpi? Xpan frame is
24x65mm.

[filmscanners] Nikon LS4000 alignment

2003-10-05 Thread W Shumaker
My Nikon scanner consistently has a 0.5 degree angle to it.
It does not matter whether I am scanning slides or negatives.
I am assuming there is some kind of mis-alignment within
the scanner. Is this something that can be adjusted?

Very interesting and straight forward test. Would it be possible for
the scanning software to take multiple focus points and adjust the focus
position as the ccd scans the film? Another feature for VueScan?
