Hi John,
Some years back I endured several rounds of angst in trying to get a 4x5 slide scanned at a lab here in Denver. After that, I decided that I'd purchase a couple of Howtek 4500's and give...
No. That's 1+ hrs per sheet.
Trying to optimize for scanning time on the 4500 is kindof like splitting hairs in my opinion. I haven't scanned 4x5 in a while (i mostly scan 8x10), but if you scan at 4000dpi i seem to remember...
I just use a dark cloth. Although I've wanted to try the black t-shirt thing to save weight in the pack, I haven't.
There is a small waterfall that is somewhat unique along Fall River Road that has a small pull off for parking. However, I've only been there once and it's probably a challenging shot to get without...
Everyone is right, RMNP means an early start, period. Mostly to get to the sunrise lighting, however, people can clog up the place on the weekends during "tourist" hours.
Some of the...
Wow. Really impressive, Robert. I like the horizontal image as well. Great skys, btw. What time of the year did you capture this?
Great shooting,

I've had good success with the Nikon 150mm SW f/8 on 8x10. Decent coverage and it's not disappointed me for either color or B&W work. Might be a little on the spendy side if you're looking for a...
As far as drum scanners go, the Howtek 4500 is a good choice as there are usually a good number of them on the used market and they still have good support from Aztek with regards to some maintenance...

I had the exact same issue with the Nikkor 150 SW I purchased early last year. It definitely seemed odd at the time and I even took a couple of pictures with it before sending it to SK Grimes to...
You can add my name to the long list of suckers that have used Adorama and B&H. Several years back I bought a huge batch of film from B&H, opened the box, and WHOA...half of my order was missing. ...
Yes I have changed the aperature size away from the default for a given DPI. I'm no master scanner, but I believe the concept of DPI to be tied to the aperature size used on the drum scanner (i.e....

I agree with the other posters...it's not rocket science, but it does take some time to pull all the...
I'm running OSX (tiger 10.4.10) with silverfast Ai Studio 6.5.0.r6 with a D4500. Yes, you need some sort of SCSI card to enable connectivity with between the mac and the scanner. For me, it was not...
Don't forget that there is a certain "freedom" to be experienced when you have the ability to scan images yourself on you're own scanner. I've previously outsourced scanning to labs in the past with...
