[filmscanners] Re: Nikon Super Coolscan 4000ED and sharpness/focus



As Kennedy has been discussing, some defocusing may not be a defect, but
a way to lessen aliasing of high frequency detail.  Most 4000 dpi
scanners probably do not need to defocus much to prevent aliasing, but
the Nikon may need a bit more due to the lighting type.
