I have one of these, for use with the 67II, en my older film-era 35mm stuff. Have not touched any of them in several years though, partly because at some point there was no Nikon driver anymore for macOS (Mac OSx at that time, I think it 64-bit only from then on) What are you using to run the scanner, the Nikkon Software, or vuescan perhaps? And is that on Windows or Mac ?
