I have just ben loaned this scanner with the option to buy if I'm happy.
I decided to run the focus calibration as I felt the scans were not as sharp as I wanted, I scanned with -120 and -60 USM. All scans were 5x4 negatives.
I have run through this process a dozen times and the same thing happens.
It Calibrates the transmission at 5770dpi, 2800dpi, 1440dpi with no issues, but when it gets to the end of 960dpi the following appears...
'Unable to detect calibration bar - please check that focus sheet is mounted' I click OK and it says the following...
'Scanner is focused but resolution has not been calibrated - use new settings anyway?'
Click Cancel or OK.
I've tried repositioning the focus calibration, I've tried it upside down, different 6x6 mount, but the same thing happens over and over again.
Has anyone else had the same issues? I've cleaned both the lens and taken the tubes out to check for dust, all are fine.
So far I have always clicked cancel, what would happen if I was to click OK?
Many thanks,
Rob
