Nikon Coolscan V ED Feature Highlights
High-quality film scanning
The Coolscan V ED’s 4,000-dpi true optical resolution and 14-bit A/D input converter with 16- and 8-bit output enable the reproduction of sharp, crisp images with vibrant colours. Nikon’s exclusive Scanner Nikkor ED lens also plays a key role in the delivery of high-quality images, reducing colour aberration and minimizing image distortion. Proprietary LED illumination technology ensures consistently accurate colour reproduction.
Quick, easy operation and high performance
The Coolscan V ED is designed to be easy for even first-time users to operate. Simply set the film, perform one-touch image preview and click the Scan button. In about 38 seconds, you’ll have a high-quality digital image at 4,000 dpi. Image data transfer is also a breeze, as the Coolscan V ED incorporates the high-speed USB 2.0 interface.
Unmatched image restoration functions
- Scan Image Enhancer
The Scan Image Enhancer function automatically adjusts brightness and colour saturation, producing images with optimal contrast.
- Digital ICE4 Advanced™
Digital ICE4 Advanced™ is an impressive suite of four image correction technologies. Digital ICE™ works with LED illumination to remove surface dust and scratches without altering image composition. Digital ROC™ automatically rebuilds and restores deteriorated colour values for faithfully rendered images. Digital GEM™ reduces the effects of film grain, producing sharp, clear images without clumping or graininess. The newly added Digital DEE™ function uses exposure compensation to help reveal details that may be hidden in shadowy or highlighted portions of scenes.

Nikon Super Coolscan 5000 ED Feature Highlights
Ultra-fast scanning
The Super Coolscan 5000 ED features a newly-developed, low-noise 2-line CCD sensor for an amazing scanning speed of 20 seconds at 4,000 dpi — ideal for imaging professionals and other users who value high productivity. Autofocusing speed has been reduced to a mere 4 seconds. The scanner also
offers the plug-and-play USB 2.0 interface, which dramatically increases data transfer speed.
Tremendous image quality
The Super Coolscan 5000 ED’s 4,000-dpi true optical resolution and 16-bit A/D converter enable the reproduction of stunning images in vibrant colour and astonishing detail — even in darker portions of scenes. Nikon’s exclusive Scanner Nikkor ED lens elements are superior in edge-to-edge sharpness, definition and contrast, as well as colour registration, saturation and accuracy. The low-heat, highly accurate LED light source further ensures stability in colour characteristics and faithful overall reproduction.
