Films came back from the lab, including some commercial portraits I needed to scan.
It would appear that my Nikon 8000 scanner has tossed its cookies. It got progressively worse, from not quite making the scan I wanted until it's now at the point where Vuescan can't even see it. It powers up and pulls in the film holder just fine, but the scanner hangs (at least when it recognized it) when attempting a scan, even a preview scan. I've sent a very detailed email to Ed Hamrick and I hope he has some advice, but my gut is in a knot.
I can deal with this one using the Epson to scan it--the print size requirement is not large. But if my Nikon film scanner is hosed, then I'm screwed for a way to get a decent, affordable print from roll film at more than 8x10. And I do a lot of roll-film.
Does anyone know if Nikon still services their film scanners?
