Scanning This chapter describes how to make your first scan. Step 1—Ready the Film ............................. 56 Step 2—Place the Film in the Holder ........ 58 Step 3—Insert the Holder .......................... 60 Step 4—Scan the Slide ...............................
Step 1—Ready the Film The holder you will use depends on the type of film scanned. This example illustrates how to scan 35-mm film using the FH-835S film holder provided with your scanner. The FH-835S is used when scanning strips of 35-mm film up to six frames in length. Up to two film strips can be placed in the holder at a time. When scanning a single film strip, or when scanning two strips of different lengths, use the masking sheet to mask the unused apertures in the holder.
With the holder oriented so that the insertion guide is to the left, insert your fingers into the holes in the lower portion holder to unlatch the hooks holding the upper cover in place, then open the holder.
Step 2—Place the Film in the Holder Place the film to be scanned in the holder with the matte emulsion surface down (the shiny surface up) and the frames aligned with the apertures in the lower portion of the holder. Apertures Place the second strip of film in the holder as described above, aligning it with the next row of apertures. Neither strip should be longer than the row of apertures.
Openings are provided in the upper cover to allow you to adjust the position of film before latching the cover closed. Using these openings, insert a pointed object, such as a pen, in the film perforations and adjust the position of the film so that the frames are aligned with the apertures in the holder. Close the upper cover so that the latches click into place. Nikon Scan will display thumbnails in the order shown below.
Step 3—Insert the Holder After confirming that the status LED is glowing steadily, slide a holder into the holder slot as shown below, with the insertion guide up and pointing toward the scanner. Do not insert the holder at an angle. Once the holder has been inserted as far as the insertion guide, the scanner’s loading mechanism will be activated and the holder will be fed into the scanner automatically. Remove your hands from the holder when loading starts.
Step 4—Scan the Slide The actual scan is performed using Nikon Scan (for detailed information on using Nikon Scan, see the Nikon Scan 3 Software Manual). Nikon Scan can be used as a “stand-alone” application for scanning images and saving them to disk as described below. It can also be used to scan images directly into any application that supports TWAIN (Windows) or Adobe Photoshop 5.0 acquire plug-ins (Mac OS 9 or earlier).
Using Nikon Scan This example illustrates how to scan 35-mm film using the FH-835S film holder. Using Nikon scan for the First Time The first time you run Nikon Scan, the status LED will emit five series of rapid blinks (each of about three seconds duration) when you first insert holder with the scanner on or if you start Nikon Scan for the first time with the scanner on and a holder in place. This does not indicate an error. Do not eject the holder.
1 Choose the type of film to be scanned from the Nikon Scan media-type menu. 2 Choose a color model from the colormodel menu. Calibrated RGB is the best choice in most circumstances. The Grayscale option is for use when scanning black-and-white (monochrome) film, while CMYK is intended for professionals who wish to create a file ready for printing on an industrial four-color printer. Pg.
3 Choose the frames to be scanned Click the thumbnail drawer tab to open the thumbnail drawer (the thumbnail drawer is not available when the optional FH-869GR rotating glass-covered holder for medium format film is inserted in the scanner).
