FWIW I've scanned about a dozen APS films with the APS adaptor for the
Nikon LS30 and I don't recall seeing any scratches.

Alan,


It may be that the APS cartridge is at fault.  My Nikon APS adapter includes
instructions that advise as little film loading and rewinding as possible
due to the nature of APS cartridges.  They are designed to be loaded and
unloaded only a few times in their life.

filmscanners: film scratched by APS adaptor for CanoScan FS2710?

[Alan Rew]

Has anyone on the list had problems using the APS film adaptor for a
CanoScan FS2710 (or similar scanners)?

Normally I scan 35mm negatives for myself with no problems whatsoever,
but while scanning an APS film for a friend I noticed that horizontal
scratches were appearing on the neg.

These scratches seemed to be accentuated, strangely, by my using a
pressurised air blower to remove dust from the film while in the
adaptor. I am pretty sure that the scratches weren't there originally.
My fear is that the APS adapter is at fault.

Does anyone know if APS film emulsion is particularly fragile, or if the
CanoScan APS adaptor is problematical in this respect?

I really don't know where to go from here - I suppose could get a
replacement adaptor from Canon, but I'd still be reluctant to scan these
films if there was a generic problem.

Any help would be welcome.

TIA

Re: filmscanners: Win 2000 and Canoscan fs2710 SCSI problems

[Quoton]

Make sure you have the correct ASPI driver installed for your SCSI
controller. This has happened to one gentleman on this list I think.
Once he had the ASPI driver installed he scanner works. If you have
Adaptec controller you may down load it free from Adaptec.

Re: filmscanners: Win 2000 and Canoscan fs2710 SCSI problems

[Larry Berman]

Hi Sam,

What exactly are you getting for an error message when starting you 
scanning software? If you have ViewScan installed, is it seeing the 
scanner? The problem I had concerned a Polaroid SprintScan not being 
recognized by Win2K, with a specific set of error messages. Post your error 
messages to see if anyone has the same problem.

I have migrated to just 2000 and now I am unable for the life of me to get

Re: filmscanners: Vuescan 6.4.8 problems with Canoscan FS2710 - Mac

[Dean Brown]

I'm experiencing a similar situation on a PC running Win98SE.  The image is
a lovely shade of green with no real colour information.  I actually get
some colour ( albeit very washed out ) if the slide setting is selected.  I
still had version 6.4.7 so I reinstalled it and the negative setting seemed
to work ok.

filmscanners: Vuescan 6.4.8 problems with Canoscan FS2710 - Mac

[Richard]

I just downloaded Vuescan 6.4.8 and cannot understand why I am getting  what
looks like a raw scan even though I have all the setting correct for
negative film.

I reverted to an earlier version 6.02 and trashed the ini file scanned the
image and its fine in this version. Then when back to 6.4.8 only to find the
problem still exists.

My scanner is a Canoscan FS2710 and I am Mac based running OS9

Anyone else having problems?

Canoscan FS2710 and Canocraft

[Urmas Tartes]

I recently bought CanoScan2710 with Canocraft FS 3.6.1. software. When
starting Twain under Photoshop (or separately) Canocraft displays default
scan resolution 3080 dpi (not 2720) with output reolution 340 dpi.

What is interesting, is that when I let scanner to scan with these
settings, scanned file sise actually corresponds to 3080 resolution scan.
Is there interpolation by software by some error? Does anybody has same
interesting feature?

The best scans I've achieved so far using the CanoScan FS2710...

[Richard]

Hi all

If anyone's interested I've put up a few scans on the web, these I regard to
be the best I've achieved so far using the CanoScan FS2710, CanoScan
software and Vuescan. All the images have been adjusted for colour, curves
and USM applied in PS.

http://homepage.eircom.net/~ricwalsh/

All were scanned at 2720dpi 48bit.

I print using an Epsom750 at 360dpi on Epsom Premium Quality Glossy Paper
and get excellent results.

Comments on the scans appreciated, as for the photography, I'm still
learning.

I thought I had used the procedure outlined on this website, but something must have 
gone wrong. Well, it worked for you, so another try is in order. They had version 
3.6.3 of the Canon software available, so I used that. Maybe that was a mistake. Which 
version did you use?

If it *is* ICE(tm), yes.  But various scanners have software for
dust and scratch removal.  AFAIK, ICE is the most effective and
requires an Infra-red channel on the scanner in addition to RGB.
I think only the LS30, LS2000 and Minolta Scan Elite (?) support
it directly of the current scanners.

Ed has written dust and scratch removal into Vuescan which can
work without the IR channel but it works better *with* it.

I can't comment about other software such as the routines in
the Polaroid interface.

Cleaning the neg doesn't remove scratches - ICE helps a lot in
that respect.

You can't clean scratches off.

...and you never really get *all* the dust, grime, grease, hairs, etc. off.

Try ICE. It's pretty impressive to see a comparison. I'm looking forward to
4000dpi scanners with it...

Yes, I have had to deal with the same problem. I found the solution on the

then the canoscan software (after which you can install VueScan if ya want).

Email me privately and I can send you the fixes.

Has anyone successfully installed a working copy of Canoscan software on

I have the present use of a machine with W2000 on it, but am having no
success in getting the Canon software for the FS2710 going properly.
Canoscan 3.6.1 (or 3.6.3) installs ok, but the Twain hookup will not work
with any of three editing programs that have been tried. The FS2710 selects
fine in the Select Source box, but shortly after going to "image - acquire"
the system gives up, and either closes the image editing program, or says
that the program has caused an error.

The SCSI card installation is fine, I reckon, as it works properly (twain
and all) with my older Microtek E6 flatbed, after applying a W2000 patch to
the Scanwizard software.

The Canon web pages have been trawled for relevant info, such as the 3.6.3
software, but no success so far. Any suggestions please?

No Canon doesn't yet use ICE. ICE is a technology that scanner manufacturers
license from Applied Science Fiction (www.appliedsciencefiction.com). This
technology is explained very well at their web site. I am personally looking
forward to seeing who brings out scanners using the newer Ice3 technology -
later this year according to their site.

No, it doesn't.  ICE is another way of saying "has an infrared
channel and uses the ICE algorithm to remove dust using
this infrared channel".  The FS2710 doesn't have an infrared
channel.

The infrared channel on the Minolta Scan Elite is slightly different
from the infrared channel on the Nikon scanners.  On the Scan
Elite, it appears to add the infrared diode's signal on top of the
normal light from the xenon bulb, while on the Nikon scanners,
it pulses four colored diodes on and off in order (red, green,
blue, and infrared diodes).
