I agree with the need to capture entire tonal range, but don't agree with
your belief that this cannot be done with Nikonscan. Have you
tried Scanner Extras / Prescan mode / low cont neutral? (on negs only I
think)

I am using a Canon FS2710 invoked from PS 6.0.1 via the twain driver. My
question is: Should I modify the image using levels, curves, etc. at the
time of the scan or simply perform the scan, save the image as a .psd file,
then make any modifications later?
Thanks...

I Have used the Canoscan with other scanners, but not the Minolta.
I have found using Vuescan with the Canoscan does wonders. Even basic scans
come out with less noise. Do a multi passes or the long exposure pass gives
me great scans - adding shadow detail and getting rid of

Ii wouldn't worry about the refurb. units. Customers return things for a
variety of reasons, sometimes with nothing at all wrong with them. The
returned units can no longer be sold as new and must be checked out and
"refurbished" to be sold again.

Do you know the day of the year that always has the largest number of
large screen TV returns? The day after the Superbowl...

This probably speaks "volumes" about customer prefs,
I've always looked on refurbs as the best of both worlds... one hand is the
lower price, the other is that the unit has already failed in the field (or
been returned for whatever reason) and the factory has had to not only fix it
but make sure it passes even more rigorous tests than the new units
I've been using a Canon FS2710 for about 18 months. It works
well, but does tend to be noisy in the dark areas of slides. I've
heard good things about the Minolta Scan Dual II, and I am wondering
if it is noticeably superior to the Canon. At the moment they are the
same price, but the

I'd also be interested in replies to this. I noticed two things of

Canada, its backordered for up to two months due to demand.

Hi Sam,
I'm still having a problem that Photoshop isn't able to access the Epson
Twain driver for my Epson Perfection 1200S. The Polaroid SS4000 doesn't use
the same twain interface, only it's proprietary software, which could
include Silverfast, Insight, or VueScan.
But I am able to scan
Hi!
The Vuescan homepage says that you need a driver called ASPI and an address
to download it from. Have you tried it?!

To my knowledge, the only scanners with an IR channel are:
Nikon LS30/2000 (and likely the new ones being released)
Minolta Elite
Acer Scanwit 2740
As VueScan's ability to do clean up improves, IR channel may become less
important an issue.

Paul,
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?
-Paul Patton
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.

I believe the Canon FS2740 does have IR ... why else would Jack

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)

Looking at low cost film scanners and this Canon FS2710 seems like it might
be nice. Anybody have strong feelings for or against it? I know there have
been new 4000ppi scanners announced, but will there be anything better in
the Canon's price range out soon?
Thanks,

If you don't require SCSI interfacing and have a USB port, you may wish
to consider the Minolta Dimage Dual Scan II. Most people are quite
impressed with it, especially when used with VueScan, a third party
product selling for $40 US., and the price is lower than the Canon.

Have the scanner, have had no problems with it. I love the results. Not having a need for 4000dpi this suites my needs perfectly.
