I am relatively new to scanning and was thinking of purchasing a new
Dimage ScanDual IV ($290) or Coolscan V ($600), but recently came across
a used Artixscan 4000tf at a reasonable price, well below the Nikon
Coolscan V. This will be used for hundreds of negs and some slides
including Kodachrome. Some of the film is clean and some of it fairly
dirty, as I discovered when scanning some previously. Are there any
known problems or caveats to the Artixscan? I have a Win2000 notebook
with USB 1 and 2. I have no Firewire, but could add it with a PC Card.
I assume this would be important. How does the Aritxscan software and
dust removal compare? Any feedback would be helpful. TIA.
