The Nikon Super Coolscan 9000 ED is a brilliantly designed multi- format film scanner aimed at professionals but I would seriously recommend it for anyone passionate about photography. It is a joy to use.
It scans 35mm, Medium format 120/220, 6x6, 6x7, 6x9 (cm) and 16mm size films. Excellent results with black and white, colour negative and slide film in all the available above formats.
The price for the Nikon Super Coolscan 9000 ED is around £1800 to £2200. Compared to the Imacon range of Flextight scanners which can be anything around £5000 to £12000 the Nikon Coolscan 9000 ED price is instantly more attractive but what about quality?
The Nikon Coolscan produces images that are certainly good enough for professional, commercial and archival uses and fine art exhibiting purposes.
If you use Photoshop and have a good or professional printer then the results will be stunning. I've printed 44 inch / 111.8 cm wide and much larger prints from the 6x7 cm medium format film size and the results are impressive.
The files are very large allowing for substantial enlargements. Resolution is 4000 dpi. A 35 mm negative (using 8-bit) will be about 67.5 MB and a 6x7 medium format negative comes out at about 282 MB. Which means I would recommend you have at least 2 GB of RAM for your PC especially for manipulating the files in Photoshop.
The scanner can "batch" scan 12 frames of 35mm film, there is a 35mm slide holder for multiple slides still in their plastic mounts, a holder for the the medium format film sizes which come with the scanner.
The software is easy to use and very good giving lots of choices and options.
Digital- Ice4 removes dust and scratches from colour images at the time of scanning which works really well. Unfortunately it can't remove dust from Black and White films so that is something you would have to do painstakingly using the clone tool in Photoshop but you do get use to it!
The scanner is well made and very robust.
I think the quality of the Medium Format files are alone make this scanner a design success.
If you use 35mm and Medium format film and want high quality digital professional results then this scanner is for you.
