Edward,

Nice shots once more.

I confess to have just about given up on my return to film. I’ve worked with three scanners, the Epson v800, and the Pacific Images XA and XAs. With the latest versions of VueScan and Silverfast AI. Just can’t get close to what I was doing with the Nikon V.

But I can’t bring myself to buying another Coolscan scanner. Too fraught with marginal eBay offerings and reliability/cleaning issues. (The power supply on my Nikon scanner failed.)

Lab scanning would cost me around $2000/year. Plus I don’t like dealing with jpegs.

I will return the XAs and, sob, sell my...Show more →

If you have a digicam, scan with that. I dumped lab scans a looooong time ago.

I scanned this one with my Nikon Z7 + 60mm 2.8G.

Congrats! Try to use the Nikon Scan 4 software, it gives the best color.

Love to use the Nikon scanner software, but they have not supported Mac OS for some time now. Perhaps there is a workaround I am not aware of.

My wife's Windows machine is two meters from my Mac here, and I could easily hook the scanner up to it, but I don't want to go to the Dark Side just yet. I will rely on Vuescan and, in a pinch, Silverfast.

By the way, this Photoshop action is my negative inversion of choice: http://eigakai.ro/ps-action/cn-scan-inversion

Happy Christmas!
