Coolscan 8000, more questions.

When using the 120 film holder and cannot manage to get the film lined up correctly. Consequently I end up with overlap from the prevoiuse picture, this is of course using negative film strips of three. Has anyone else experienced this? if so some input would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure what you mean here. I find that the automagic function that identifies where frames are for the thumbnail view is usually a bit off and needs to be adjusted. Every time, and it is so bloody annoying. If they'd only made the scanner so that it could scan a couple of millimetres either side there would be no problem. Andrew. |

Better yet, scan the whole bloody strip and let the user draw an outline of the image area to be scanned. Sheesh. I don't think the hardware can do that: the micro-stepping motor can only cover a 6x9 frame. How stupid to let the software decide (and wrongly most of the time) and then have the user apply a "correction" to the software's off-the-wall guess. Still though, it makes awesome scans. This is but an annoyance. Yes, but it messes up your workflow. The scanner would be considerably faster to use if you didn't have to make this correction every time. Andrew. |
