It must have been annoying to open up that scanner and get it clean to the point it doesn’t interfere with the images. Thank you Markus for the effort you put into it for us!
Thanks for mentioning that, I was twice thinking to let it be, but then I thought you guys deserve to see what this scanner is capable of and so I kept digging to find the issue. Scanning is much more than putting in some media and pressing a button. It’s all about cleanliness, settings and preparation. There is a reason that some while ago companies had scan operators
Amazing! I'll have to keep an eye out for this scanner, and then work on adapting things to USB. Also, I forgot how easy it is to configure SCSI under windows; configuring SCSI under DOS was a pain in the butt. There's a reason they jokingly call it "System Can't See It".
Great video 😊 I revived a Nikon Ls2000 many years ago my dad bought at the Flohmarkt for 5€. It needed a very deep clean as well but image quality is amazing. However, now I face another problem keeping it running as my new computers dont have a Pci port anymore to use my Adaptec2940U SCSI Card. But I'm working on a solution- up to then I need to keep an old Pc for that. Btw, is your Pcmcia SCSI card fast enough? They're rather expensive unfortunately but would be my prefered solution :(
That sounds like a great deal. And cleaning is often easily possible. I still have that card with its original packaging. If you want it, just send me an email. I have also a spare Mac if you prefer that.
Hmm also wenn die Treiber mit den aktuellen System funktionieren könnte man eine SCSI-PCIe Karte in ein Thunderbolt-Gehäuse reingeben und sie damit an moderne Geräte anschließen. Wär nur spannend ob dann zB VueScan funktioniert.

Lucky one you could find all the aditional hardware. And nice results. Was courious if you could get that monster back to life.
I am so happy about this one. I think there is one for sale near you as well :)

Hahaha 😹 haven’t heated that one. There is a usb duoscan btw.
I am near Atlanta, Ga and have a DuoScan, SCSI connection, that I am going to dispose at a VERY reasonable ticket!. PM me.
@@michaelsmith9931 If I lived closer I would take you up on that offer!
NIce!
The scsi interface was the king of interfaces for a while before USB took over.
Thank you, yes but ts still relatively fast for today
I think scanner is very capable for today! I have got arcus 1200 but resolution for 35mm is not that great..... I use Vuescan...
@@kabaottoemulsion1869 i want to compare it with DSLR scanning

@@mhaustria Thanks so much for your offer to help- I just wrote you an email.

Oft sind diese Adapter sehr teuer. Aber sobald das Gerät angezeigt wird sollte es mit Silverfast und Vs funktionieren
What software do you use for cleaning negatives and slides from dust and scratches? Thank you ❤
I clean them before scanning. I describe the tools here: ruclips.net/video/Oi3Tef3zZPE/видео.htmlsi=9HyVH_KdB2R7TG9h
Do you think the resolution of this scanner is really high enough for 35mm?
Depends what you want to do with it. For family memories it’s more than enough. about 5000px on the long side
These old scanners can be a challenge because of ports and drivers.
I just saw a similar scanner with a usb port for 70 euros. Just a little late, but it would have saved me some time.
I must say it's pretty impressive for such an old device. Though I must say that the late 1990's and early 2000's were the heyday of film scanning.
I agree, not sure how much better the scanners are today - I guess they last shorter. I could zoom in on both much more btw.
