With the most recent Nikon scanners (and a fast PC) I've started using ICE even on slides, and the results are excellent. Not that my slides are filthy to begin with (they are usually pretty clean, which is why I skipped ICE in the past), but ICE saves a bit of time in PS and seems not to affect

Is there any difference between the dICE or performance - supplied with the early Nikon Scan say 2.1 and the later NS 3.1.2 - when using a Nikon LS2000 scanner? Has it changed? Improved or stayed the same? Rob

I, naively perhaps, have often thought that simple things like 'sensor motion blur' and 'scanner shake' might have something to do with it. When looking and listening to my LS4000 scanning, I start to wonder how long the sensors actually stays still, and how this relates to the length of

Now that is interesting. I understand the principle, but my experience, is that drum scanners actually require more sharpening than high end CCDs...at least that's what I've seen in scans I've done on both a Howtek 4500 and a Leaf 45. Though I agree, what you say makes sense

Hi Jack, Okay Austin, I've got the Doctor looking over my shoulder right now. He says that with MOST scanners (especially ccd) because of the pixels sensor density, there is light piping between sensors causing a loss of sharpness. I don't believe it's light piping, but electronic

I'm sure Jack Phillips can give much more info on this, since his company created dICE and licenses it. Also, as I understand it, there is more than one version of dICE, and the newer version has apparently been improved upon over the original. As I understand it, dICE uses some type of
