    Nikon Coolscan V ED LS-50 Slide & Film Scanner - Works Great - w/ SA-21 & MA-21 Adapters
    Nikon made some of the best slide and negative scanners. This one works great and was serviced in 2017. I have been very pleased with the image quality. It connects via USB and is a 4,000 DPI scanner.
    The scanner is very easy to operate. The film / negative adapter is motorized so that it can move a pre-cut strip forward and back to scan different frames. This feature can enable somewhat "unattended" batch scanning of the frames on a negative strip.
    Please review the photos. In one of the pictures I’ve shown where the service repaired an enclosure fracture (
    the
    result is
    a
    cosmetic blemish
    by
    the power button (
    which
    works
    fine
    )
    and it has not
    affected
    my usage).
    The sale includes the scanner, two adapters (MA-21 slide adapter and SA-21 film or negative adapter), and USB and power cables.
    Doesn’t include the old Coolscan software (which Nikon no longer supports). If you don’t already have scan software
    compatible with the LS-50
    there are
    commercially-available modern, supported solutions
    for both
    Windows and macOS.
    The
    scanner
    appearance is
    good
    though not perfect. As can be expected with vintage devices there are signs of use, wear, and aging (again, please see the photos).
    If you’ve moved from scanning photos to scanning negatives, then the Coolscan V ED, like other Nikon film scanners, is awesome.
    Specs: This is a fixed film, movable plane single-pass optical scanning system using Red, Green, Blue, and Infrared (RGBIr) LEDs. It has a linear CCD image sensor with 3,964 pixels and the optical resolution is 4,000 DPI. A/D conversion is 14-bits per color. Auto and manual focus capabilities via software. Detailed specs online.
    Important notes: I will not ship outside the US or to freight forwarding addresses. Please verify that your shipping address is correct. The sale includes only the scanner, adapters, USB cable, and power cable. As-is. Thanks for looking!
