[filmscanners] Re: LS4000 vs IV ED
I took a look at the website and the Astia samples. You need to fix the titles under the samples, they are either missing (in the cropped images once they appear) or in the case of the full images, the top two are listed as Vuescan Single pass, and the bottom one as Nikoscan. I suspect the middle image is a multipass scan?? Didn't check the other film types.

[filmscanners] Re: LS4000 vs IV ED
OK, so the larger images are all single pass (I missed the slide versus image settings on the Vuescan) In Netscape with my system, the mouse pointer/cursor doesn't show anything. I ended up using properties to read the name of the jpeg file. Anyway, doesn't look like multipass in these cases makes a big difference.

Plus, they are described in more detail in the How the results are presented section: http://www.cupidity.force9.co.uk/Scanners/LS40/how_the_tests_were_done.htm (scroll down to the bottom) So, yes, in the three crops, the middle one is multipass.

No jawed, I must be miss your posting. Would you please to remind me the links ? Was the IV ED sued to that test ?
