There is also modification on the back side of the scanner: the Firewire port IEEE-1394 was sacrificed for the benefit of a USB 2.0 port.

In this regard many a cheap discounter licks the expensive competitor Nikon. I think in this case Nikon economised too much and scored a classic own goal: suddenly the expensive Nikon scanners are the only devices in the market which do not have a direct dust protection of the interior.

But when you have to send your scanner to service or want to lend it to your friend, you always have to attach a film adaptor in order that the interior is protected. Actually this is not a big restriction, as long as the film scanner is placed on the desktop. So a film adaptor has to be attached to the Coolscan 5 ED at all times, even when not in use. Nikon removed this creditable piece completely. Therefore, when the cover was closed, the scanner's interior was securely protected against dust. The most striking modification compared to the predecessor attracted my attention on the front side of the scanner: the LS-40 had a sliding cover, which easily covered the interior of the scanner when no film adaptor was attached. While the Coolscan 4000 was standing on four rubber knobs, the new Coolscan 5000 is bordered by two rubber-like plastic attachments, so that it has a skid-proof stand on the desktop both horizontally and vertically. The altered stands immediately catch one's eye though. The dimensions and the form are the same as its predecessor's.
NIKON SCAN MANUAL SOFTWARE
When unpacking the scanners it became already clear that Nikon has rationalised: two identical boxes with different labelling, same wrapping and packaging inside, the same film adaptor, same connection cable, same software and even the same user guide - only the scanners are different, but not formally. I have ordered my Coolscan V and Super Coolscan 5000 the same day and I also received them at the same day. Because both scanners are formally almost identical, some pictures on this page derive from my review of its big brother Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 ED. My following review will show that Nikon strongly saved costs, which is not obvious at first glance though.Īs described below Nikon launched two new scanners at the same time: the Nikon Coolscan V ED and the Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 ED. Does this mean higher performance for lower prices? Not really.

The biggest surprise though was a radical price reduction of about 20% compared to its predecessor. By means of specifications it was soon clear that the little Nikon progressed heavily. In October 2003 Nikon surprised the filmscanner community with the successor of the well proven Nikon Coolscan IV ED. However Nikon was front-runner concerning the prices as well.
