My brother is looking into a filmscanner, and has been looking at the Nikon CoolScan V ED. Anyone have any experience with this scanner they would be willing to share?
I have using the Nikon LS4000 scanner, although on a limited basis. I have gotten very good results with it. I finalize the images in PhotoShop.
Nikon's tech support is excellent. I had used the scanner for over three years on a laptop. When I went to use the scanner on my desk top, the PCI ieee 1394 firewire card was defetive. Nikon eventually replaced the card when all other attempts to obtain one failed.
I believed that the Coolscan V is usb, so you sould not have any of my problems.

I scanned some 35mm negs for him to give him an idea of it's capabilities. While impressed with the output, the slower speed of the flatbed vs. the film scanner helped him decide. It can be so tough making decisions, and having independent input is a big help! Thanks again.

I don't know if anyone is interested but I bought a Minolta Speed Scan film scanner on ebay. I just couldn't pass it up because of the price. I know it's discontinued from production but it had a suggested retail of 1299.00 and it has had some good reviews. I think the last street price of this scanner...
