Microtek makes one of the only large format scanners on the market today, which concerned me as I don't like to see a monopoly as then product quality won't be job #1. I was surprised.

ScanMaker 9800XL Plus (LED)

Optional TMA for scanning films and slides With the use of the optional TMA, you can scan X-rays, positive transparencies, and negative film. The included templates accommodate a variety of film sizes, including 35mm slides, 35mm filmstrips, 4" x 5" film, and medium format film from 6 x 4.5-cm up to 6 x 17-cm panoramic film. ScanWizardTM Pro scanning software This is an advanced scanner controller program that provides many powerful, professional- level features for scanning. ScanWizard Pro features two color spaces, allowing users to work in the Native CMYK / RGB mode, as well as in the intuitive LCH (Lightness, Chroma, Hue) mode. Auto Dynamic Range The system automatically determines the lightest density or tone (Dmin) and darkest tone (Dmax) of the original; then it captures the image color data with the full input tonal range of the scanner. This setting optimizes color balance and the contrast of the output image, and is most useful for scanning negative films. Multiple Sampling Multiple Sampling is a process in which the scanner samples each line in the image a number of times, then obtains an average to reduce random noise. Auto Color Restoration The Automatic Color Restoration feature is part of Microtek' s ColoRescueTM system for bringing faded colors back to life. Descreen Descreen feature can remove moire patterns when scanning pictures or photographs printed in magazines or newspapers.
