I don't much care for the LEDs, because having three non-overlapping narrow color bands is a recipe for metamerism on different film types. I've made a lot of pretty slide scans on my LS-2000, but I wouldn't call the color "accurate". What I'd like to find out is if the optics have a greater DOF than the old scanners. That was the worst problem with them. -- Ciao, Paul D.
