Agree with you Tony.
I have not the problem with my old Sprintscan 35+ ( best scanner to scan
black and white film with)
I explained to the Nikon scanner people at Photokina 2000 about the problem
with curved film and the film holders and they where aware about the
problem.
The only way to have a 100 % sharp picture in ED4000 or LS2000 are glass
framed film.
How many of us have the time to do that!
