Just put the raw scan files (in .tif format) into the VueScan folder and

Not quite that easy. The key to the scanning accuracy and registration is

The scanners have a coarse and fine movement. We will implement panoramic

I'm waiting to see the price and response to the new Canon FS4000US, which
will be coming out sometime this month or early next month. The street price
is supposed to be around $1099,00, and it has dust and scratch removal. Who
knows, perhaps it will drive the price of other scanners down.

Steve,
Just so you know since you're new to Vuescan, you can have multiple versions
of Vuescan on your machine - keep the one you have for the long exposure
(just rename it or move it to a different drive so it's not overwritten) and
install the latest one. Then you'll have the best of both worl

I'm in the market for a film scanner between US $500 and

Minolta Scan Dual II,

or maybe a LS-2000.
Will be scanning lots of b&w negs. Any advice for best

It would be interesting to change the firmware to be able to scan 24x62mm
panoramic in SS4000.
Just remove a sprocket from the negative holder and voila!!! No stiching

How about it, David??

Hi Ed!
I did use Long Exposure Pass on some slides with an extreme dynamic range. To

I know you're asking about the Nikon scanner, with which I have absolutely

One of the Sprintscan 120 Beta testers developed a method for scanning
panoramic medium format film.
He scanned the first position at 6x9, the second position at 6x9. This
resulted in overlap. Brought both into Photoshop, changed the opacity in one
image, lined it up and dropped on the other image
Anyone had any thoughts along these lines:
- Use the new Nikon 8000ED to scan both halfs (with overlap) of a
6cmx17cm panoramic transparency? Like stuff from that monster Fuji
G617/GX617 camera?
I guess my question is, can this _mechanically_ be done with this
scanner? I realize the spec

Ed: I assume that the long exposure pass would be replaced by having
