[filmscanners] RE: Which SCSI Card for SS4000

2002-09-07 Thread Bernie Kubiak

Polaroid suggests the use of Adaptec products and will offer technical
support.
I have the Adaptec AIC 7850 and Win XP has no problems with it.  The
scanner needs a 50 pin Centronics M or DB-25M connector.

Subject: [filmscanners] Which SCSI Card for SS4000


Someone who is not yet subscribed here is buying a SS4000 scanner and
wanted to know which is the best SCSI card to use with the scanner on a
PC, with, I assume, PCI interfacing.

Also, he was wondering which type of SCSI cable he needs (he wanted to
pre-purchase the cable, as it isn't coming with the purchase).

What SCSI II cable plug does the scanner use, and what is required on
the Card end?

I haven't used an SS4000, only the SS4000+ which uses USB and Firewire,
and I can't recall what the SS4000 rear looks like.

Thanks,

Art

Doesn't the SS4000 come bundled with a SCSI card?
I thought it did (but could be mistaken) as I have one
here still in the package that I've never used as I had
SCSI built in to my Mac.  Unless it came with my CDRW, I'm
pretty sure it came with my scanner (man, aging is hell).
It is an Advansys SCSI adapter, PCI, with a 50-pin
internal port as well as a DB-25 external port.
I'd gladly sell it for $25 if anyone needs one, as I'm
obviously not using it.

The SS4000 did originally come with a SCSI card but Polaroid stopped
including it at some point.  I got one of the last ones and it didn't have
the card and their installation instructions were modified to reflect that
change.

[filmscanners] Scanning 35mm panoramic film

2002-09-07 Thread

I recently bought a Minolta Dimage Scan Multi Pro film scanner for
scanning 35mm panoramic negatives. I didn't find the standard film
carriers to be too good, so I've adapted a 35mm glassless carrier to
accept the longer panoramic negatives from my Noblex (which has the same
size frame as a Hasselblad X Pan by the way).
For anyone interested in how it was done please have a look at
www.cix.co.uk/~holman/glasless.htm for full details.

Whilst there you might like to have a look at some of my other panoramic
work that's linked from my photography pages on www.paulholman.co.uk

Hope you might find it interesting. Apologies if you've seen this on
another mailing list.

[filmscanners] understanding contaminated blacks--SS4000--newbie type question

2002-09-07 Thread

When scanning high contrast Velvia transparencies, I am seeing detail loss
in the shadows along with areas that just look muddy brown. I understand
what causes detail loss from shadows with high contrast films but I am
unclear what causes the muddy appearance. When I view the image at 100%
level in PS, I see areas of brown pixels speckled through the blackest
areas.

I can't magnify the actual transparency enough to see at that level. Is what
I am seeing due to noise being introduced into the darkest areas? Is it due
to the contrast range of the transparency exceeding the capabilities of my
scanner? Is this due to the dust on the mirror causing noise artifact in
areas it's most apparent?

Is there anything I can do with Photoshop to remove some of this?

 Several online sellers show it as being in stock (I have purchased
 items from Googlegear and TigerDirect, both are reputable).  These
 are US-based - not sure about other parts of the globe.

 Thanks to all who replied to my post about apparent current scarcity of
 the
 Epson 2200 printer.

 The scarcity seems to be real.

 I have a 1270 which works well and will have to suffice until the
 drought
 is over, I guess.

 Thanks again to all.

How many ounces of ink are in the black and color 2200 ink cartridges?  I
notice that Epson's page does not say.
