I just got back from spending 4 days in Miles City shooting the Bucking Horse Sale in 5 inches of mud.. I'm still trying to get it off me..:-).. If you need some scanning you may want to stop by some time.. Heidelberg Tango, Azteked / Howtek Hi Resolve 8000, Heidelberg Nexscan 4200 flatbed, the list goes on... I have one LS 5000ED left (had 2 of em) ..The fella that bought the one hasn't touched it for 2 years .. It's getting dusty.. ( It's as new) Maybe he'd sell it.. I'm familiar with the 2000 (had one) you'd really like the 5k.. actually you'd get spoiled I think. You can scan in 16 bit.. so lots more head room.... > > > > jimbo > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: Paul > > To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com > > Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2011 6:31 PM > > Subject: Re: [Digital BW] OT: looking for an active Nikon scanner group - Yahoo! or otherwise > > > > > > > > > > > > Thanks, Jimbo. great reply, > > > > Yes, I think your link is where I got my LS-2000 overhauled.

Service on these things is usually more then a replacement cost now. Thus I have a suggestion.. Go on eBay..do a search for LS2000.. their is a guy that does service on a few of the older models that is always out there ... Here's a link... http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-Coolscan-LS-2000-Coolscan-III-LS-30-Servicing-/260609293354?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cad863c2a ..Maybe that will work for you.. > > > > > > The other option is to purchase another unit which may be more cost effective.. You'll have to decide.. I'm on the Scan High End group ...a few of us have some of the Nikon items along with our regular scanners.. These scanners will get harder to get parts or get repaired as time goes on.. The LS 5000ED is now selling for more then new in most cases.. If you get stuck contact me off group.. Maybe I can help you further. > > > > > > jimbo > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: Paul > > > To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com > > > Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2011 4:28 PM > > > Subject: [Digital BW] OT: looking for an active Nikon scanner group - Yahoo! or otherwise > > > > > > > > > > > > Hello all, > > > > > > I'm having some issues with my Nikon LS-2000 scanner, more precisely, its SA-20 adapter for strips of film.
