![]() I fiddled around with the image offset for a while. So you have to have to improvise and be patient sometimes.įurthermore, with images that show a lot of black, birds in the forest for example, there is the problem that Vuescan picks the beginning of the image – instead of just starting the preview scan x millimeters after the beginning of the image. What is a bit annoying is that the scan crop from time to time makes itself independent and then itself looks for hard edges, which seems to show it the frame of the slide crop. But also here are some settings to heed, but probably with the last updates – these come almost in 2-weekly rhythm – less annoying. Scanning film strips works very well and is fast as well. I’m looking forward to scanning several thousand (unframed) slides that were previously stored in slide sleeves for archiving 35mm format film. The combination of Nikon film scanner Super CoolScan 5000 ED with VueScan is very well suited for scanning still-unframed slides. Also, ICC profiles and color spaces become possible in the Pro version. In the Standard version (around 34 Euro) it is not possible to create Raw scan files. I bought the Professional version (77,50 Euro), because I wanted the full functionality. My Nikon scanner now works almost perfect. The software reportedly supports a total of over 5,600 scanner types, making it possible to digitize not only slides but also documents and photos. VueScan is an alternative scanner software for various flatbed and film scanners. VueScan is both efficient and easy to use. Thanks to a specially purchased driver software called VueScan, both Nikon film scanners are now functional again and work better than ever. It goes without saying that you need administrator rights to perform the installation. Nikon does not support this operating system, therefore the installation of the scanners requires a few tricks, which are relatively easy to master for software mechanics, but which might be too much for most amateurs. From time to time I attached an old desktop with Windows 98 but had to quit due to problems in communication with my home server.Īnd up to today, the scanners cannot be easily operated under Windows 10 – 64 bit. My old Nikon COOL SCAN IV ED only worked under Windows 98 and was therefore out of service for quite a while. ![]() The problem with both, however, was that Nikon discontinued support a long time ago. The Super CoolScan IV ED only had 2,900 dpi instead of 4,000 dpi. Compared to my previous Nikon Super CoolScan IV ED, the Nikon film scanner Super CoolScan 5000 ED definitely got a higher speed and also more scanner resolution. ![]()
