The black and white negative below degraded by mold is scanned with the Nikon Coolscan 5000ED and the Nikon Coolscan 9000ED both without Digital ICE. The difference between both scanners is obvious. Both images show a 50% zoom detail of a 2500dpi scan. The whole image is shown at the bottom of this page. With thanks to the owner for his permission.
