Film users deserve a new mid-range scanner.
Inspiration, Q&A, Teaching point
Years ago, Nikon discontinued the Super Coolscan 9000 ED.
As of 2017, no one else has managed to produce a comparable product (the Hasselblad Flextight scanners don’t really count because they play in another league with respect to price).
In the past, I’ve been reasonably satisfied with the Plustek 120, but I know its performance lags behind the old Nikon and something about its operation screams “beta product”.
Perhaps Plustek, you can step in and help, please? I really want to support you for continuing to make film scanners, but I’m looking for something a notch above your current line-up.
