Before I go too far with this, I want to put this into some perspective. I've made beautiful prints from scans with this scanner, at pretty big sizes. I'm just nitpicking and trying to optimize things at this point. Now, on to the question:
Do you guys get noticable colour fringes with your V750? I find these if I scan B&W film in colour mode, etc, at high resolution (~4800 DPI).
This is from a 6x4.5 transparency scan, but I've seen it in detailed crops from 4x5 and 35mm, B&W and colour, both with silverfast and epson scan.
Resized:
Detail (6400 DPI), but also shows up in 2400 DPI scans:
Note the red border along the buildings. This sometimes happens normally with lenses on cameras due to the different wavelengths of light refracting differently through the lens, but in a scanner is this normal or defect? Is there anything I can do to reduce its appearance? Is it an issue of focus? It's not the camera; it appears in scans of B&W negatives if I scan in colour (red fringes on one side of high contrast lines, blue or yellow (can't remember) on the other), and seems to contribute to softness in B&W scans (again, for some perspective, I'm talking at ridiculous enlargement. I've printed 8x10s from 6x4.5 scans that look great).
