![]() Nikon made a line of fantastic digital film scanners in the 2000s, but unfortunately has ceased production of new units. Demand, however, has remained steady, driving up prices of the few units still in the wild. It’s a good way to test if your scanner will work with it, though, especially as we had some issues with a scanner that was listed as being supported. Common problems are listed and, once you’re through that shortlist, you’re taken to the website to find out more. The developers behind the software are a contact form away from giving you some support on the software. Once you have the scanner working, while you can just hit Scan and get a good picture, you have a lot of options to play with as well. Any function the scanner has, you can change, and you can even add some post-processing to the scanned images: fixing colours, making the imager sharper, and even allowing for character recognition (OCR) so the text of the image can be highlighted. Your mileage might vary on how well that OCR works, though – it’s highly dependent on how good your scanner is and the item you’re scanning. It’s a great piece of software that makes scanning on Raspberry Pi much easier than it’s ever been. ![]()
