I was wondering if it is recomended to get a deticated film and slide

scanner opposed to a regular scanner that has an adapter?

I just bought a HP Scanjet 4670 scanner and I was wondering how to

calibrate it? No calibration software came with the scanner so I was

wondering if you could recomend a cali software that is good and at a

resonable cost for proper moniter and scanner calibration. Thanx.

"Uh, that may be your problem. Every time you put the lens on or take it off, there's another opportunity for dust to get in. And if you leave the body in the camera bag -- or anywhere else short of a clean room -- without the cover for the lens mount, you're just asking for trouble -- regardless of the orientation of the body."

How can that be a problem if both the camera body and the lens have the secure lens and body cap on while inside the bag. When I have more than one lense later on, the camera attached to the lens will not be able to fit into the back with all the other lens around it.

I have bought a D70 and returned once already due to little artifacts

appearing on the photo. Now this new D70 camera has the same problem.

I called Nikon and asked them and they said it was probably a dirty

ccd due to interchanging lens.

I always take my (one) lens of the camera body and put it in a

different spot in the camera bag. I do this carefully with the body

upside down so not dust goes inside. They then told me it was a common

problem with the D70.

Can someone please explain how I can fix it instead of going all the

way to Nikon to have it cleaned.

Also some views and thoughts on what the problem might be because

nikon has not seen the photos yet.

Well as I said before It could have just been my camera, but strange thing is

that all the cameras at the stores have the same noise

I was wondering what that metal type spring noise is from when you

take pictures in a quite invironment and when moving quickly side to

side. I know this is not my camera because I have checked others. If

you haven't heard it. Move your camera from side to side or shake it

lightly and put your ear on the left side of the camera when the LCD

is facing you. I'm just wondering what this noise is.
