Nikon CoolScan V ED
2008-09-02
 |
| I really like the scanner. We are enjoying our old slides that have been collecting dust, now that they are on the computer. The Digital ICE4 Advanced suite of image correction is just wonderful. I would not buy/use any scanner that would not have this. Scanning takes time, especially as you need to scan single slide at a time, but worth it. |

Good Choice for scanning Negatives
2008-08-25

| It works rather well, and its not too slow. I do not like the Nikon Software it came with, as it was a little limited. I opted to use Vuescan instead, for its added features. Otherwise If you have any 35mm single frame negatives - best get the extra adapter, as it will not take them otherwise. Good quality scans. Happy customer. |

I'll never use a flat-bed scanner again
2008-07-05

Until now I've been scanning with a flat-bed. I cannot believe how much better the images look coming out of the Coolscan. Someday I may upgrade to a Coolscan 9000, but I will never bother with a flatbed again. And Digital GEM is excellent at removing grain.
My only real gripe is that there is no way to scan an entire roll at a time. |

A good way to change slides to digital

| I am pleased with the Nikon Coolscan. It is a good way to turn my slides to digital and it also gives me the opportunity to adjust any colors that have been lost over the years. Good job. |

Great with color, Good with Black and White
2008-07-02

It's not fast, but the quality and ease of scanning color slides and negatives is very good and the results are just spectacular. It's very good at getting a good quality scan from less than great slides and negatives. There are a few negatives, though not enough to make me regret my purchase.
1) Inadequate documentation (John Shaw's scanning article online was very helpful)
2) Most of the special scanning features (DEE, ICE, GEM) don't work with Black and white and you have to figure out how to create your own black and white settings so that you can just specify them once when scanning a negative strip or else you go crazy setting all the buttons and you get posterized black and white.
3)Without ICE in black and white (which doesn't work with the infrared tech they use) you have to have really clean negatives or spend a lot of time spotting. And even when you get good scans, it scans in color so you have to futz with color balance on every negative.
4) You have to cut the sprocket holes on the sides of the first negative so that there aren't any open sprocket holes or else it causes the scanner to error out and you have to open it up to get your negatives.
5) The software crashes occasionally (about 1-2 times per evening) on a modern Core 2 Duo iMac.
So though black and white is a problem, it's not negative enough to detract from a truly great piece of hardware. |
