Re: filmscanners: Canon 4000 scanner VS Nikon LS4000



Good question Brian
Im not backing  away from what I wrote a number of months ago
I get a much more  even result regarding sharpness , but when I compare   
the results whit the Canon scanner I have tested, the results are still 
inferior compare to the Canon scanner.
Best regards Mikael Risedal
