Anybody have anything good or bad to say about this older scanner (NIKON
COOLSCAN 4500AF)? I know very little about it. The tech sheet says it's
capable of 35mm at 3000ppi, and 4x5 at 1000ppi, but it doesn't say what
resolution it uses for medium format, though I suppose it's 1000ppi. Has

Vuescan 6.6.3 wasn't embedding the chosen profile in JPEGs
tonight (even with 'profile'=on) which made my efforts a bit of a

I was using the reduced res option for "scan memory" while I

the Canon doesnt have IR, can't talk for the Minolta.
Does either the Minolta or the Canon scanner have an IR channel for ICE?

This is a VueScan request for Ed which I send him also separately by e-mail.
After the preview-scan the slide holder goes back in the Acer ScanWit
scanner, thus protecting the slides against collecting dust and against
damaging by hand.
After finishing a normal scan the slide holder stays
Yes - its a nice scanner, and the Canon Software is ok for
getting it to do simple scanning jobs. With Vuescan I can
get a lot more out of it though. Its getting 'old' now and
Ive been expecting a new model or two from Canon but
Im not sure of its current price range w.r.t other better
models.

Doesn't have infrared, or at least mine doesn't..

Because for the price, it just about beats the socks anything near it's
cost, and is at least equal to scanners twice it's price :)
Guys,
I can't find any reference to CanoScan FS2740. Is this a typo?

Actually, the current model is FS2710 (unless they sneaked a new one out)

You might do well to look at the LS-30 Nikon. Since it's being replaced,
very good deals are becoming available on it, and it includes the infared
channel for "ICE" and I have seen refurbished units for $499, although I
have no experience with them. And right out of the box, it does incredible

I just released VueScan 6.7 for Windows, Mac OS and Linux.
It can be downloaded from:

What's new in version 6.7
* Improved cleaning, both with and without infrared
* Added warning message when error writing files
or when disk is full
* Added
Where did you see the refurb for $499? I'm in the market and that's exactly
my idea - to pick up an LS-30 since the IVs are or will soon be out.

This place has great prices and came highly recommended by some other
photographers. Get the LS-30, and you won't be dissapointed.

Does that mean it runs with USB? Would you elaborate on "only scans from

Have the scan dual 11 am very satisfied with it but also have a problem with
the computer recegnizing the scanner. The only way that it will start up is
by turning it on and then dicconnecting the USB cable, and then reconnecting
it. or turning on the scanner before booting up the comp.
