I'm still hard pressed to believe that software, in this case, can cause banding...mostly because some of these scanners don't band with the exact same software! Why not? Nikon managed to achieve similar ineffable faults with the LS30 (the infamous 'jaggies', and Ed fixed that too.

Title: RE: filmscanners: My 8000 does NOT band using Vuescan! It should be pointed out that NikonScan has a workaround also. It's called Super Fine mode and tells the scanner to only use one line of the CCD, exactly the same as VueScan now does. The problem here is that this will make

All, For those of you who have been following my ongoing saga with banding issues with my Coolscan 8000 here is an interesting update. I have tried the latest version of vuescan and guess what? It appears after doing a few test that the banding does not occur when using that software. This is

Thanks Ed for getting vuescan up and humming for us 8000 users :-) Although i prefer Nikon Scan for slides, it still proves that the hardware most likely is not the problem Or, that Ed found a way around the problem (or does something differently) in software. You might want to

However, there's one more thing to consider - all scanners compensate for non-uniform light sources by doing a shading correction. For instance, the light intensity at the edges of the scan is almost always at least 20% dimmer than at the center. Even with the controllable light source of
