As an owner of a Nikon Coolscan I'm very interested in having
RAW-Support in Darktable.
Nikon-Filmsanner [2] are still in use, although they are 10 years old,
not like cameras in the same age.

But I see another Problem: On

As far as I know, Filmscanner has a Sensor-Row that move along the
length of the slide.
This seems not to be a "Bayer style sensor" [1].

So (Camera-) RAW is not like (Scanner-) RAW ?
