Re: Friday Photography Blog #25. (none / 0)

As you know, I have the 5000 ED, but in order to scan uncut strips I need to buy an accessory--an SA-30-- and no one hereabouts seems to have it. Did you need to buy a similar gizmo? If so, --how expensive is it? Sure would be nice-

The Coolscan V comes with a feeder that will take 35mm film cut in the normal 6 frame strips, which is fine for me: I generally cut film to that length for storage anyway and my iMac can scan while I work or read ET or whatever. I can't work out from the website whether the 5000 shipped with one of those. I'd need to buy an accessory for scanning whole rolls. Actually, I'm not certain if I can even buy such an accessory for the V, which I think might be one of the reasons for the more "professional" price on the 5000. That and the 16-bit A/D convertor.

Thanks- my 5000 came also with the gizmo for the 6-frame sections, but the 5000 scans faster, and I've found a processor who will do color positives and negatives in strips-uncut. Then I can have a life, and good 16-bit scans too.

It looks like at this shop they have the SA30 (reels) and the SA21(strips)... :-)

Whoa.
For over 900 Euros inc. tax, I'll just muddle along with my current rig.
Thanks, though, for finding this.
