Re: filmscanners: Nikon 8000ED



Or apply the USM while in RGB or CMYK, then "Edit-Fade Unsharp Mask-Mode:
Luminosity"

David, when using Photoshop, if you convert the image to LAB mode
(Image|Mode|Lab Color) then you will find that you can USM in the Lightness
channel without touching colour.  Then convert back to RGB or CMYK when
you're done.

Paul,
The Sprintscan 120 does not come bundled with any interface cards. I would
describe PolaColor Insight as a easy to use, get up and running quickly
scanner software. In scanner software nirvana using a scale of 1 through 10
I would say Insight will take you to a 6 or 7. Silverfast is a little harder
to use but much more powerful. Its unsharp mask in particular is much better
than Photoshop's as it works on luminance only not saturation. It will do
things that Insight will never do. I think that the general industry
perception is Silverfast and Lino Color are the two best scanner software
package's from a power point of view. The Imacon software is also pretty
good. ( I do try to stay relatively unbiased).
Any further questions feel free to contact be on list or directly.
David

My SS120 should also be here by Friday.  In fact, I'll have both scanners
for the weekend so I'll try to do some good comparisons.  If it's as good as
everyone says and I save $200 (paid $2600 for the lesser package, paid $2800
for the LS8000), I'll be very happy.
Can anyone answer the following?:
- What does Binuscan and Silverfast get me over the standard software?
- does the SS120 come with a IEEE1394 card?
