I could buy a p6x7 with the 90mm leaf shutter for 250€.

The camera looks used but not too bad...

How can i see when the camera was built? (serial number...?)

How long can i expect that it will work? How many shutter releases will it do?

I know its hard to answer that questions.

thanks

thank you marc,

resolution setting was pretty high, I cant remember exactly...

I`m comparing to an old epson 3200 flatbed, the resolution and density was not that good but the scans were sharper!

Hello,

Since last week we have an epson v750 with silverfast at school.

I tried to scan some 120 film, I expected to get some pretty good scans.

Unfortunately the scans were really soft. Can someone tell me what i can do to get sharper scans (without buying

those special filmholders....)

I could get a hp 7400c for free...

does anybody use it and can show me a scan? (35mm or 6x6 etc.)

i cant find any good reviews, it seems that the scanner is pretty old.

Does it even work with mac os x and usb connection?

yeah "should be able..."

I am able, but not with pw plus IIs, can sombody please tell me if it is possible to sync faster than 1/1000 with a pocket wizard multimax as a transmitter and plus IIs as receivers?

The d70(s) has an electronical curtain. Its no problem to sync at 1/2000 or even more using a cord.

Of course the flash duration has to be that short. But thats not a problem with nikon flashes.

I found this:

Synch Speed: Up to 1/250 (focal plane)

Up to 1/500 (leaf shutter)

Up to 1/1000 (Fast Mode)

(http://www.pocketwizard.com/HTML/multimax_specifications.asp)

Is it possible to sync at 1/1000 with a pocket wizard multimax as a transmitter and plus IIs as receivers?

(leafshutter or d70 of course) or do i need a multimax for each, camera and flashes?

@ frank, pocketwizard.com says that it is possible to sync at 1/500 with pw plus II and 1/1000 with pw multimax.

Acording to the blogspot, the guy used pocket wizards.

Hello,

I´m trying to sync at a 1/1250 with my d70s but it doesnt work. (+pocket wizards & sb-80).

According to this it should be possible:

This is how my photos look like: http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w9/hansmoleman_01/D70TESTSHOTS.jpg

Could it be that the pocket wizard plus II are too slow? With a sync cord it works great....

Should i buy a multimax as a transmitter? I would really need to sync at that high speeds for sport photos...

thanks

I`m looking for a dslr with fast xsync....

I just read this thread: http://www.photo.net/nikon-camera-forum/00E9a3

Sombody said that the d50 has a better dynamic range than the d70s. Is this only when shooting in jpeg, or also

in Raw?

Hello,

has anybody tried to print a Kodak BW400CN on black and white paper (ilford

multigrade...)? Maybe somebody can show me some results?

Hello,

I heard rumors that it is not possible to fire 2 flashes with one pocket wizard

plus II. Is that true? Is this only possible with the plus I ?

@ harris -thanks, but i`m from europe...

I scanned a 6x6 slide. My old epson 4870 seemed to be sharper than the linoscan 1450.

thanks for your answer brian....

Today we got it to work.

It runs with vuescan on my macbook now. I don`t know..maybe i`m doing something wrong, but the scans look really soft...

Hello,

A friend of mine has got a linoscan 1450.

The problem is that it won`t turn on....

Nothing blinking, no noise...

I heard that there is no more support from Heidelberg.

So maybe someone has similar experiences and can help me.

I found this: (from the nikon compendium)

"The FM2, although marked with a flash synch speed of 1/200 will synch at 1/250, even if the warning diode on top of the eyepiece blinks. If you have access to one, try it. Just fire with an auto flash at a blank wall and check the resulting frame. It will be fully exposed from top to bottom."

I just tryed the blank wall stuff.....

Hello,

i heard that ALL nikon fm2s (not only the fm2n) sync at 1/250s. Is that true- I

mean is that 100% true for all nikon fm2s ?

Hello,

I`m looking for a scanner to scan my 6x6 slides and could get the Heidelberg for

circa 250?.

Can anybody give me a short review about the Heidelberg 1450 Scanner? Or maybe

show me a slide scan with it?
