Major Features

ED lens, 3-line CCD image sensor and LED light source with rod dispersion have all been improved for enhanced image quality with faster scanning speeds. These premium fea-

tures give you the leading edge in profes- sional desktop imaging.

(120/220), 35mm (135) format, 16mm, electron microscope and preparates (glass slides for a micro- scope). To reproduce the high definition of medium- format films, the 9000 ED boasts special optics and a new 3-line CCD image sensor. The Scanner Nikkor ED

lens has a larger, specially designed diameter which ensures high-resolution read- ing of medium-format film while delivering unparalleled optical purity to the CCD.

The SUPER COOLSCAN 9000 ED with Nikon Scan 4 provides you with compre- hensive digital darkroom capability. Enhanced LED illumination has enabled the incorporation of Digital ICE Professional™, which is effective with Kodachrome film. With only a few pre-scan adjustments, you can achieve high-quality images that remain faithful to the original color composition — something other image- control applications struggle with. Nikon’s Color Management System (CMS) also ensures that every shade and hue can be accurately reproduced in nearly all oper- ating environments.
