Cheap and Cheap.......2004-01-07

Though bearing the Nikon name these are just another one of the thousands of cheap Chinese-made binoculars that have flooded the market in the past 10 years. Optically these are not bad binoculars (for the price). Mechanically they are poorly made: flimsy plastic bodies which do not stand up to normal use.
If you are looking for good binoculars look elsewhere.

It's able to handle slides or 35mm film rolls, and with the addition of a simple adapter, you can take on Advanced Photo System film just as easily. With a dynamic range of 3.6 and 42-bit images, the scanner guarantees clean images and vivid detail. It's compatible with Macintosh and PC, and it comes with a software package of Altamira Genuine Fractals, Photoshop LE, and Canto Cumulus.

Customer Reviews:

great scanner.......2003-12-09

I've had this since it was first released and have found it to be a superb scanner.
As someone else has pointed out, there are occasional issues with slides, but from my experience that is a glitch in the NikonScan software and not the scanner itself. Using other scanning software (eg. Vuescan or Silverfast) has solved those issues for me.

Changed my opinion.......2003-12-08

Originally, I had very negative things to say about this product--namely problems with scanning chrome. Well, it took a couple of attempts over the past three years, but Nikon's support crew did a fantastic job once I convinced them of the problem, and they absorbed the entire cost of the repair (which was almost half the cost of the scanner).

In other words, Nikon stands behind its products. And you can't beat that. Buy it.

The best way to go for scanning negatives.......2003-11-05

The Coolscan IV is definitely worth the price for scanning negatives. I looked at flatbed scanners and cheaper film scanners previously, but in the end I bit the bullet and bought the Coolscan. I have no regrets about doing this. The resolution of the scanned negatives is amazing - I can see details that were not visible the original prints. What really makes the investment worthwhile is the Digital ICE technology, which "cleans up" dusty or imperfect negatives. I am in the process of converting my entire film library into digital images.

This brings me to the downsides of the scanner. It does not utilize USB 2.0, and the process of scanning negatives at high resolutions is very very slow. I basically have to devote 45 minutes to an hour to scan in a roll of film because I have turned on Digital ICE as well as the other touch-up features available on the scanner. However, this is by choice, so for people who don't want the highest resolutions, the process may be somewhat faster. The other problem is that the included software is very powerful but has a steep learning curve. I spent a lot of initial time tweaking the settings to find what produced the best images.

Overall, though, the gripes are minor since the quality of the images is so high. This has changed how I take pictures now. Since the resolution of the digital images is higher than any reasonably priced digital camera on the market, I am now shooting most pictures with a film camera and scanning the negatives. This provides the best of both worlds - a set of cheap prints as well as high-quality digital images. Now I just need to get another hard drive to hold all the images that I am scanning in...

wonderful scanner.......2003-07-07

I can't really add much to the reviews below, except to confirm what they all say. The money I spent on this scanner was very well spent. I'm having a great time going through my archives, scanning images, sending them to friends, printing them out for my walls and for gifts. I also highly recommend the Canon photo printers. Results are fantastic. Thank you Nikon, thank you Macintosh, thank you Adobe Photoshop. Canon, too.

It works with XP.......2003-05-18

It comes with XP software and manual contrary to specs on Amazon Web site. It works wonderfully - installs wonderfully and produces great scans. Thanks Nikon and Amazon.
